Metaal Doubles Through Ribes

Govert Metaal
Govert Metaal

From under the gun, Govert Metaal raised to 2,000. Sylvain Ribes made the call from the button, and David "ODB" Baker called from the big blind. From there, all three players witnessed the {8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop roll out, and Baker checked. Metaal fired a continuation bet of 3,700, Ribes called, and Baker folded.

The turn was the {A-Hearts}, which prompted a check from Metaal. Ribes slid out 4,700, but couldn't shake Metaal just yet. He called.

The {A-Clubs} paired the board on the river. After Metaal checked, Ribes fired all in. Metaal snap-called for his last 11,600. Ribes tabled the {K-Spades}{J-Spades} for air and Metaal the {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for two pair.

Denis Finds a Double Against Karr

McLean Karr opened with a raise to 1,600 from the cutoff seat before play folded to Sandy Denis in the small blind. After a little bit of thought, Denis reraised all in for 18,225. Play moved back over to Karr and he requested a count. Upon receiving one, Karr took a brief pause, then announced the call.

Karr: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}
Denis: {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The flop gave Denis the lead when the {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} fell. The turn {3-Spades} and river {Q-Hearts} kept him in front from there and he doubled up. Karr was left with under 10,000 in chips.
