The Flying Dutchman

Marcel Luske is currently in the field. The well dressed Dutch player boasts over $3,700,000 in live tournament winnings, and has been a World Series of Poker staple with over 20 cashes. His highest coming during the 2003 Main Event where he placed 10th for $373,000.

We recently caught up to him and his table with a {3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop exposed. Luske checked from the big blind and a player in later position bet out 250. Luske made the call and a {A-Hearts} fell on the turn. It was here that both players opted to check.

The {9-Diamonds} on the river awoke the sleeping Dutch giant and Luske bet out 700. After a few moments his opponent folded and Luske raked in the small pot and showed {2-Spades}{3-Diamonds}.
