Van der Marel Forced to Fold

Nicholas Van der Marel raised to a very small 475 in early position and got himself called by Wilfried Brunelle in the cutoff.

A flop: {A-Clubs} {4-Hearts} {9-Diamonds}

Van der Marel bet 525, and again Brunelle called.

A turn: {4-Spades}

Not giving up just yet, Van der Marel bet another 1,100; once more, Brunelle called.

The river: {J-Diamonds}

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.
