Double Rainbow Paid Off

Level 2 : 100/200, 25 ante

The button opened for 500 and called a three-bet from Govert Metaal in the small blind. The two players saw a flop of {9-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{4-Clubs}. Metaal led out for 1,050 from seat 1 and then called a raise to 3,500 from the button in seat eight. With the dealer between them there was no chance of a stare down so they would have to rely on the board and bet sizing. The turn card was the {q-Spades} and when Metaal checked he faced a rainbow bet, that is a bet that includes one of every colour, which in this case was 6,625. Metaal pondered this turn of event but made the call. The river was the {6-Clubs} completing any flush draws and again Metaal checked. It was double rainbow time as another bet one of each chip for 6,625 came his way. It took a long time for Metaal to make the call, but call he did. He could only give the briefest of chuckles and muck his cards when his opponent turned over {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}.
