Epskamp's Great Start
Level 8
: 300/600, 75 ante
"I was up to around 110,000 for a bit," Yori Epskamp just told us before adding that he's currently sitting on around 82,000 chips.
In one important hand a player limped in the cutoff, the button called, as did the small blind and Epskamp checked in the big blind holding 
. The flop brought out 
and all four players checked.
On the turn the 
hit and the small blind lead for 1,300, Epskamp called and the initial limper raised it up to 3,500. The small blind called and Epskamp decided to raise it up to 11,000. The player in the cutoff moved all in for 20,000 total and Epskamp called after the small blind had folded.
Epskamp held the nuts and his opponent was drawing dead holding 
.
