Nemeth and Van Rooij play 200+ Big Blind Preflop Pot
We're only five levels into the tournament, but four-bets and big all-ins are happening all over the tournament floor already.
Merijn van Rooij opened to 1,000 in the hijack and was three-bet by Audrius Stakelis in the cutoff. Andrea Ricci cold-called on the button, and then the fun really started.
Andras Nemeth came in for a four-bet to 12,000 from the big blind, and with action back on him, Van Rooij five-bet piled his full 47,000 chip stack into the middle. Stakelis and Ricci folded, but after his four-bet, Nemeth was put to a decision for most of his chips.
After a bit of time, he called to see he was involved in a big flip.
Merijn van Rooij: 
Andras Nemeth: 
The dealer spread a board of 
, giving Van Rooij a winning pair of kings on the turn to more than double his stack, while taking a big chunk of the €25,000 Single-Day High Roller II champion's.
