Van Wesemael Builds Himself a Pot

Level 17 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

After arriving at the table with the flop of {q-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} already spread on the table, the pot had over 65,000 in the middle. Milan Skacel checked from the cutoff and Sander van Wesemael checked behind him on the button.

The [{j-Clubs} paired the board on the turn and Skacel checked again. Van Wesemael made a bet of 38,000 and Skacel called to see the {2-Clubs} fall on the river. Skacel checked for the third time and van Wesemael fired another 76,000. Skacel tanked for a minute before making the call.

Van Wesemael turned over {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades} and Skacel mucked his cards. With that pot, it appears van Wesemael has taken over the early chip lead.
