Alexey Pak raised it to 1,300 under the gun and Pieter de Korver made the call in position. Niels van Leeuwen on the button squeezed to 4,400 and the small blind folded. Big blind Nico Kuan tanked for a fair bit, before shoving all in for 41,500. Pak and De Korver folded, and Van Leeuwen asked to see how much it was. Even before the dealer really started counting, Van Leeuwen said "Yeah, never mind, I'll call anyway."

Nico Kuan: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Niels van Leeuwen: {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}

The board ran out {4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{Q-Spades} and Nico Kuan doubled, leaving Van Leeuwen behind with just 3,800. With 75 for the ante, the next hand action folded to Van Leeuwen in the small blind and he glanced at his cards before announcing "Yeah, let's just do it" as he moved in.

Rob Yong on the button folded but Kuan was interested again. Kuan three-bet to 8,000 and Pak folded his big blind. "Yeah, you can take the rest as well" Van Leeuwen said with a sincere voice.

Nico Kuan: {A-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Niels van Leeuwen: {9-Spades}{6-Spades}

The board ran out {A-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and Van Leeuwen wished the table good luck before making his exit. With the departure of Van Leeuwen, the only Dutch World Poker Tour National champion is out of the tournament. He still has the option to re enter, but we doubt he's going to at this point.
