De Wolfe's Connectors Suit Him Just Fine

[user46298]

Level 8 : 400/800, 75 ante

Raul Mestre came close to eliminating triple crown holder Roland de Wolfe, but ended up putting him back in the game with an above average stack for the first time in a while.

Caught on the river with a pot of over 17,000 already built, Mestre, first to act, was deliberating putting in de Wolfe who had less than that back. The board stood {4-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {8-Spades} {3-Spades} and after a pause the rest went in (it was quiet but it looked like Mestre set in cutoff de Wolfe and he quickly followed with {4-Hearts} {5-Hearts} . Mestre shook his head showing {6-} {6-} and re-counted his 40,000 or so with the expression of someone finding a wasp in their lemon.
