Early Morning Madness
In the second level of play things are usually quite friendly and easy going, but not on one of the featured tables here at the World Poker Tour National event in Valkenburg.
Michel van Os raised under the gun to 400 and Frank Jagt three-bet to 1,200. To Jagt's left it was Karim Elhassani who called and the other players folded back around to Van Os.
Van Os opted to put in a four-bet to 3,900 and that got Jagt to fold, but Elhassani put in the call creating a very serious pot.
The flop rolled out 
and Van Os checked to Elhassani who bet 7,100. Van Os tried to make the call by pushing forward two chips worth 5,000 each and one chip of 100. The floor staff ruled that it indeed was a call and the hand continued with the 
on the turn.
Van Os lead out this time around for 11,000 and Elhassani did not flinch as he made the call. The river was the 
and Van Os moved all in right away and Elhassani snap-called. Elhassani proudly showed 
but that was no good against Van Os' 
.
Van Os raked in a huge double up while Elhassani was left behind crippled with just 1,200 chips.
