Metaal Fortunes Improve
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Moments after losing a big pot against Padraig O'Neill, Govert Metaal was back in the action once again. The action was joined with the Dutch all in from the small blind, with Davis Mihelsons his only caller from the cutoff.
Govert Metaal: A?10?
Davis Mihelsons: A?9?
A flop of K?Q?2? seemed relatively safe for Metaal.
The 7? on the turn kept him ahead and in prime position to double.
It was confirmed on the 10? river, with Metaal scooping an important pot and Mihelsons left with well below average stack.
