Van Alphen Five-Bets

The action folded to Jacob Balsiger on the button, who opened to 100,000. Dutchman Niels van Alphen three-bet to 250,000 from the big blind, and Balsiger four-bet to 475,000. Niels grabbed two towers of green T25,000 chips, and five-bet to 1.2 million.

Balsiger quickly folded, and van Alphen shipped the pot.
