Steven van Zadelhoff Keeps Stacking

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

With about 2,000 in the pot on a board reading {q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, the players in the small and big blinds checked. Steven van Zadelhoff was in middle position and bet 1,300. The small blind called and the big blind paused for a moment before check-raising to 3,800. Van Zadelhoff called and the small blind folded.

The turn was the {10-Clubs} and both players checked to the {j-Clubs} on the river. The big blind checked again, and van Zadelhoff bet 3,600. His opponent tanked for a while before eventually releasing his hand.

Van Zadelhoff is now sitting on triple the starting stack midway through Day 1a.
