Rinkema's Dogballs

Level 5

The player in the cutoff seat opened with a raise, and Remko Rinkema three-bet from the button. The two were heads-up to the {K-Spades} {Q-Spades} {6-Clubs} flop, and it went check-check. The {2-Diamonds} turn drew a leading bet of 500 from the cutoff, and Rinkema flatted to see the {J-Clubs} river. Check-check again.

Rinkema waited until his opponent essentially surrendered -- holding his cards over the muck face-down -- then showed {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} to take the pot.

He's back up to 7,100 now, a good run back towards his starting stack from the low point around 1,400.
