Walthaus Doesn't Back Down
Level 8
: 400/800, 100 ante
Jorn Walthaus was the second player to get knocked out during last year's final day of the summer, as he finished in 26th place in the 2014 World Series of Poker Main Event. The Dutchman's back for more this year and he just won a big pot without showdown.
The player on the button raised to 2,100 and Walthaus three-bet from the big blind to 5,800. The button called and the flop brought out 
, on which Walthaus bet 6,700.
Walthaus' opponent raised it up to 13,400 and the Dutchman responded by shoving all in for an additional 30,400.
The button tanked for quite a while and eventually he let his hand go. Walthaus raked in the chips and he's now sitting on a comfortable stack midway through Day 2.
