Idema Quarters Opponent, Still Down Early
Level 2
: 50/75, 0 ante
Daniel Idema bet fourth and fifth streets as the board came 
, and he was called both times by an out-of-position opponent.
Idema showed 
for a seven-high straight with a wheel for low. His opponent had flopped a wheel and been counterfeited with 
, and Idema took three-quarters of the pot.
Despite the small win, Idema is still below the starting stack. He's coming off an excellent 2013 World Series of Poker that featured five cashes, two final tables, and one bracelet win in Stud Eight-or-Better. We'll see if he can add to the bracelet tally here.
