Victor Ramdin Takes a Big Hit

Victor Ramdin raised to 6,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Yde van Deutekom in the cutoff and he reraised to 18,000. When action got back to Ramdin, he instantly made it 63,000 to play and van Deutekom went into the tank.

After about four minutes, the clock was called and van Deutekom made the call. The flop came {8-Spades} {6-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} and Ramdin checked. Van Deutekom bet 45,000 and Ramdin called.

The turn fell the {2-Diamonds} and Ramdin moved all in. He had van Deutekom well covered and the bet put van Deutekom into the tank once more. After about five minutes, another clock was called by the same player who called for it earlier in the hand. Van Deutekom made what seemed to be a call out of frustration and the players showed:

Van Deutekom: {K-Clubs} {K-Diamonds}
Ramdin: {J-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}

The turn fell the {6-Spades} which missed Ramdin's flush and straight draws. He lost the hand and was left with 291,000 while van Deutekom doubled up to just over 400,000
