Woerd Up
If you speak Dutch and ever find yourself perusing our sister site pokernews.nl, or even if you never stray from pokernews.com but your eye occasionally wanders to the shoutbox, you will be familiar with the work of Frank "webjoker" Op de Woerd. Veteran of a million (approximately) EPTs but always from the safety of the press room, Mr. Op de Woerd is right this minute taking his first ever shot at playing one of these things.
So far, it's been going rather well. We found Op de Woerd betting an at-this-stage-rather-hefty 2,100 on the river of a board. His opponent wrung his hands but made the call anyway, turning over for a rivered set, but Op de Woerd flipped for the flush and won the pot. The dealer attempted to ship said pot to the wrong player, but was soon put right and Op de Woerd is up to 36,000.
