Molenaar Picks Up a Small One Before Losing a Big One

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Michael Molenaar
Michael Molenaar

Michel Molenaar raised to 210,000 from the cutoff and was called by Justin Arnwine from the button. Molenaar fired out 310,000 on the KQ8 flop and was called. The Dutchman sized up to 1,350,000 on the 2 turn, and Arnwine snap-folded.

On the next deal, David Rees opened to 200,000 from the button, and Molenaar defended his big blind.

On the A65 flop, Molenaar check-raised to 850,000 over Rees' continuation-bet of 300,000. Rees was quick to call.

Molenaar bet 800,000 on the 4 turn, but was sent into the tank after Rees jammed for 3,965,000. After several moments of thinking time, Molenaar called as the bigger stack.

David Rees: 87All in
Michel Molenaar: AxQx

Rees turned the straight to leave Molenaar drawing dead ahead of the Q river.
