Wice Worser
Level 4
: 150/300, 0 ante
Last year's winner Liv Boeree opened to 500 preflop from the cutoff, Lex Veldhuis called in the small blind and Alex Wice called from the big blind.
The flop was and Veldhuis led out for 1,100, Wice called and Boeree folded leaving us heads up for the turn. Veldhuis now bet 2,600 and again Wice called without too much hesitation. The river was the and Veldhuis now bet 12,300 - an overbet of the pot and the usually fast-acting Wice slowed right down.
Tanking for over a minute (that's a Wice minute, roughly equivalent to five of our normal minutes) Wice finally made the call and turned over . Veldhuis flipped for the absolute nuts and the Dutchman is up to about 63,000 while Wice dropped to about 14,000 or so.
