Beltz Outdraws and Busts Spragg

Level 8 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Wouter Beltz
Wouter Beltz

Daryl McAleenan opened his button for 1,500 and got called by both blinds Benjamin Spragg and Wouter Beltz.

The {j-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop saw plenty of action. It all started with Spragg and Beltz checking to McAleenan, who continuation-bet for 2,000. Spragg called and Beltz squeezed in a raise to 7,000. This got rid of McAleenan and sent Spragg into the tank.

When Spragg emerged he decided to go all-in with his stack of roughly 25,500. Beltz snap called, covering Spragg, and their holdings were revealed.

Benjamin Spragg: {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Wouter Beltz: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Spragg was ahead but Beltz had a plethora of outs to choose from. One of them hit the turn with the {3-Diamonds} being dealt, and that instantly sealed Spragg's fate.

The meaningless {q-Spades} rolled off on the river and Beltz started stacking Spragg's chips, almost disappointed he did not get to play more hands with the PokerStars Ambassador.
