Willems Chipping Up Early

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

With a board showing of {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{7-Spades}, Robert Willems threw out a 7,000 bet with about 15,000 sitting in the middle and received a call from Brian Kent. Willems flipped over {9-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}.

"Awe man, that's the second time you've flopped a straight on me only 20-minutes into the tournament!" Kent said as he folded his cards. Turning to PokerNews, he laughed and said "Are you going to capture my misery?"
