Van den Bijgaart Busts in Big Flip Against Srinivasan
Shyam Srinivasan has had countless swings this tournament, but right now he's back in the thick of things after busting one of the fan favorites; Dutchman Joep van den Bijgaart.
Van den Bijgaart, a former EPT Berlin finalist, raised to 45,000 from the cutoff and Srinivasan three-bet from the small blind to 135,000. Van den Bijgaart decided to make it 600,000, with very little left behind, and Srinivasan shoved.
With a pending pay jump, Van den Bijgaart took some time before calling off the remainder of his stack, but ultimately we witnessed the following showdown.

The board ran out and the queen on the turn gave Srinivasan this massive pot worth over 1.2 million. Van den Bijgaart collected €18,320 for his efforts, and Jasper Wetemans is now the last Dutch player remaining.
