Big Multiway Pot Goes Nielsen's Way

Sometimes hands can often become fairly complex that it's almost impossible to keep track of everything (We're looking at you Stud-8!) but most of the time it's fairly easy in Hold'em, only on very odd occasions does it get a little tricky. This was one such occasion.

Perica Bukara, who finalled the Unibet Open in Prague a few days ago, opened preflop to 600, super-active Rasmus Nielsen called, as did Hanno Liiva. With us so far? Good.

Markus Ristola now raised to 2,500 from the cutoff and Jaanus Matveus cold-called in the small blind. Bukara tanked before making the call, Nielsen called and then Liiva took several minutes before eventually folding leaving them four to the flop.

The board came {7-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {3-Spades}, Matveus, Perica and Nielsen all checked and Ristola bet 5,000. Matveus now folded but Perica called after a minutes thought and Nielsen casually threw in a 5,000 chip behind him. It was checked to Ristola on the {Q-Clubs} turn as well but this time he checked behind to see an {A-Clubs} river.

Perica checked a third time and Nielsen moved all-in for around 17,000 or so, Ristola quickly folded and Perica folded {7-Spades} {5-Spades} face up, allowing the Dane to pick up another big pot. He's on about 42,000.
