Lindepuu Drops Down a Little

Runnar Lindepuu raised to 50,000 from the button and Marc Naalden called.

Flop: {9-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {8-Hearts}

Naalden check-called a 55,000 bet from Lindepuu, and they saw a turn.

Turn: {Q-Clubs}

Naalden checked, and this time Lindepuu bet 110,000. Again, Naalden called.

River: {5-Clubs}

Both players checked, and Naalden turned over {9-Spades} {10-Diamonds}. Presumably it was good, as Lindepuu mucked and is back down to 750,000. There was a smattering of applause and a few people said, "Woo!"

Put Some Clothes On

Marc Naalden raised to 55,000 from the button and Runnar Lindepuu reraised, the exact amount unknown because your blogger was distracted by a couple guys in dressing gowns wandering into the card room. Either way, Naalden passed.

Action on the River

Our two remaining Trojans reached the turn of the {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} board, where Marc Naalden called a bet of 30,000. On the {K-Spades} river, Naalden raised Runnar Lindepuu's leading bet of 100,000 to a total of 280,000, but the young Estonian pushed all in, and Naalden relinquished his hand.

Chips Go Back to Naalden

Runnar Lindepuu made it his favorite raise size 40,000, only for Marc Naalden to re-pop him for 125,000 total. Lindepuu concentrated very hard on his stack for a few moments, before calling.

Come the {8-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} flop, Naalden bet out 135,000 -- and with a look of slight disgust, Lindepuu was forced to fold.
