Huge Setback for Gybels
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Niels Gybels had dominated the last few levels but would lost a massive pot for more than half a million in chips against Nico Lombaerts. The action on the river is amiss, but Gybels then bet 62,000. Lombaerts moved all in for exactly 200,000 and Gybels was vaulted out of his chair.
"This is so sick," the Belgian said and gave it some more thought. He ultimately put forward some chips to make the call and was shown by Lombaerts. It took a while to sink in before Gybels turned over his and cut out the T-5,000 stacks to pay off his opponent.
