Van Boxtel Gets Richer, His Bounty Bigger

Level 5 : 100/200, 25 ante

Raul van Boxtel was sitting on a stack worth 75,000 all of the sudden and told us about a hand that had catapulted him to the ownership of that massive chip castle.

A short-stacked German player shoved all in for 1,400 and Van Boxtel called holding {Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}. His neighbor, Roseline Siman, 3-bet to 4,500 and Van Boxtel called.

The flop came {Q-Spades}{7-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and Van Boxtel checked. Siman bet 8,000 and Van Boxtel pushed all in. Siman called with {9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for the open-ended but failed to get there. The German player had {A-}{Q-} so tripled up, but Van Boxtel collected Siman's bounty.

Not much later, a French player limped in. Kees Aerts raised and found 4 players calling, including Van Boxtel and the French limper. On the flop, Van Boxtel and Karen Luir checked their blinds. The French player shoved all in for only a couple hundred of chips, and Van Boxtel shoved over the top. Muir wasn't too sure about what to do, but eventually elected to fold.

Raul van Boxtel: {3-Spades}{5-Diamonds}
French player: {3-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

The {4-Spades} on the turn and {8-Spades} didn't do enough for the French player and Van Boxtel collected another bounty. He's worth €1,250 himself right now.
