Vandersmissen Runs Like Vandersmissen
Kevin Vandersmissen had just sent a tweet to our Dutch counterpart apologising for not giving him much action to report on during today's play but he has just given him, and us, something to write about.
The action folded around to Vandersmissen in the hijack and he min-raised to 2,000. The button and small blind folded but Martin Hauswald in the big blind three-bet all in for 16,500. Vandersmissen picked up some blue chips to call with but couldn't quite pull the trigger. Instead he simply waved them around in a circular motion in mid-air for a few seconds before finally deciding to pull that trigger and make the call.

Hauswald:
Vandersmissen did not look happy at all with his call but that soon changed because the flop came down . At this point Hauswald had stood from his chair and started to gather his belongings. He was drawing dead on the turn and to rub a little salt into the wound the river was the completing an unnecessary full house for the Irish Open champion.
