Metaal and Albrecht Battling

Level 3 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

From the cutoff seat, Govert Metaal raised to 3,800. Dieter Albrecht called on the button and the flop came down {Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. Metaal bet 4,000 and Albrecht raised to 12,000. After a minute, Metaal called.

The turn went check, check after the {10-Clubs} fell and the {7-Spades} landed on the river. Again, both players checked.

First, Albrecht showed the {A-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for a missed flush draw that was now just ace high. Metaal showed the {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades} for a turned pair of tens after flopping an open-ender and won the pot.

On the next hand, Dan Shak raised to 4,100 from early position and Metaal called from the hijack seat. Albrecht called in the cutoff seat and Anatoly Gurtovoy called from the small blind.

The four players took a {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop and action checked over to Metaal. He bet 11,000. Next in line was Albrecht and he fired in a raise to 26,500. Gurtovoy and Shak folded before action fell back on Metaal. He also folded and Albrecht won this one.
