Kabrhel Double Leaves Claushuis on Fumes
Level 18
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Bouwe Claushuis limped in under the gun, and Martin Kabrhel, in the cutoff, raised the pot to 72,000. Robert Cowen called on the button with the A♠K♠Q♥5♦ and Claushuis also called.
On the Q♣8♠7♣ flop, Claushuis checked and Kabrhel bet the pot for 256,000. Cowen folded, and Claushuis moved all in after using a time bank. He got snap-called by Karbhel, who was the player at risk for 440,000.
Bouwe Claushuis: Q♦J♦9♥2♦
Martin Kabrhel: A♣K♥10♥6♣
Claushuis was ahead with top pair with gutshot draw, while Kabrhel had his own gutshot and nut flush draws. The 5♠ turn changed nothing, but Kabrhel spiked the A♦ for a pair of aces on the river to double.
