Molenaar Thrives in His Post-Bubble Era
Michel Molenaar was spotted on the bubble with less than 100,000 chips, but on a revisit to his table he was found with more than quadruple that amount.
His latest winning came from a three-way pot with Daniel Turner and Cole Maguire. Turner had opened the action from middle position with a raise to 12,000 and both Molenaar and Maguire called, from the button and small blind respectively.
The flop of 
got checked through before Molenaar was the first one to bet on the 
turn. 20,000 was the amount to call and only Turner obliged.
On the 
river Turner checked for the third time this hand. Molenaar fired for slightly less than the pot and put 65,000 chips in the middle. Turner quickly called and Molenaar showed 
for top pair. Evidently, that was enough to rake in the pot, as Turner gave his cards to the dealer face-down.
