Kuipers Wins Kings Against Aces

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Pim Kuipers
Pim Kuipers

After an early-position raise, Pim Kuipers looked down at {K-}{K-} and put in a three-bet in late position. The initial raiser four-bet and Kuipers called. The flop was {K-}{10-}{X-} and all the money went in to create a pot of 160,000. Kuipers' opponent held {A-}{A-} and was out-flopped by Kuipers' kings. The board provided blanks on turn and river to send the pot to the Dutchman.

Shortly after, Kuipers knocked a player out with {A-}{A-} against {Q-}{Q-} to move up even further. Kuipers now sits at 350,000 and wields one of the biggest stacks in the room.
