Van Der Merwe Chips Up in Three-Way Action
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Three ways to the 8♠5♠4♣4♠ turn, Howard Lipman bet 3,000 and was called by Wesley Blom as well as Wouter Van Der Merwe. The 6♣ river was checked to Van Der Merwe and he bet 5,000. Lipman quickly called while Blom folded.
Van Der Merwe tabled 10♠2♠ for a flush and Lipman mucked the 4♦.
"I flopped two pair, big blind special," Blom said.
