Van Bavel Busts Another One, Closes In On a Million

Level 14 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Action was caught on the turn in a pot of 33,000, where the board read [6sjs9d2hArjan van Bavel was on the button and bet 27,000 after a check from Andrea Roner. Roner then raised to 65,000 before Bavel made the call.

The river fell the 5? and Roner put a big stack of T-5,000 chips forward for a bet of 105,000. Van Bavel thought for a bit before announcing ''all-in''. Roner played about 130,000 back, and did not like the predicament he found himself in. Ultimately, though, he put in the call.

Van Bavel immediately tabled his 8?7? for a rivered straight. Roner angrily threw his K?K? across the table before he evacuated the premises. Another huge pot for Van Bavel, whose stack is head and shoulders above any of that of his competitors.
