Van der Marel Forced to Fold
A flop:
Van der Marel bet 525, and again Brunelle called.
A turn:
Not giving up just yet, Van der Marel bet another 1,100; once more, Brunelle called.
The river:
Van der Marel paused, riffling chips, before checking. An expressionless Brunelle bet 3,000, and after another moment's thought Van der Marel gave it up. He's still a big stack, though, with around 32,000.
