Van Luijk Misreads His Stack, Still Busts Lipp
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Mathias Sijander raised to 50,000 in the cutoff before Matthias Lipp three-bet to 400,000 in the small blind, leaving himself 50,000 behind. Derk van Luijk called in the big blind, while Siljander folded.
"You just call, right," Lipp asked as the flop came 3♥J♣6♣. Lipp checked to Van Luijk who then moved all in. Lipp called off his last chips.
Matthias Lipp: A♦9♦
Derk van Luijk: K♣K♥
Van Luijk was ahead with his kings and Lipp couldn't catch up on the 8♣ turn or 3♣ river to hit the rail.
"I didn't think I had him covered," Van Luijk explained as Lipp headed off to collect his payout.
