Van Alphen Gives Some Back
![[user76079]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
The Dutchman Niels van Alphen didn't hang on to those double-up chips very long.
He opened to 40,000 from the button and bet 64,000 on the flop, and 150,000 on the turn. The final board read 
and Van Alphen's customer was Bjarke Hansen. The Dane was in the small blind and called all the way before both players checked the river.
Hansen opened 
for second pair and it was good as Van Aplhen mucked.
