De Korver KO'd
Just moments ago, we spotted de Korver doing an interview with the Dutch television crew, so we assumed he had been eliminated. A chat with the Team PokerStars Pro a few minutes later confirmed his demise, and he filled us in on the details.
With the blinds at 150/300, an opponent opened the pot with an over-raise to 3,000. De Korver looked down at pocket aces and moved all in for about 16,000. His opponent immediately called with pocket kings. The flop was pretty uneventful, but a third club hit fourth street, and the only club in either hand was the king of the covering player. Sure enough, de Korver's hopes were slashed as a fourth club peeled off on the river, flushing him out of here in the middle of Day 1b.
