Von Ostrowski Loses the Absolute Minimum in Cooler
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
In an interesting twist of fate, the top two, Stan Van Dijk and Malte Von Ostrowski have been seated directly together at the last four tables.
Van Dijk limped, Von Ostrowski followed behind him, as did two other players.
On the J♦J♣6♠ flop, Van Dijk led out with a bet of 25,000 and only Von Ostrowski called.
The 2♠ rolled off on the turn, and Van Dijk fired again for 85,000. Von Ostrowski again called.
The 4♥ river completed the board. Van Dijk fired out a bet of 275,000 and Von Ostrowski snap-called. Van Dijk showed A♣J♥ for trip jacks, and locked shocked when his opponent turned over K♦J♣, perhaps wondering how more chips did not go in the pot.
