Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante
Pieter de Korver
Pieter de Korver

On a {3-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop, Pieter de Korver called a bet of 2,500 out of position. The turn was the {q-Spades} and this time he let his opponent fire 5,000 before moving all in for about 17,000 total. His opponent made the call and the hands were turned up.

De Korver: {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

De Korver would need to hit a club or a ten in order to stay alive but found neither with the {a-Diamonds}. That ended his day and he will have to wait until next year for another shot at glory.
