Bartholomeus De Bont opened to 2,500 UTG and was faced with a 7,000 three-bet from Tristan Ragnarsson (Hi-jack). De Bont forced Ragnarsson all in for 33,300, and Ragnarsson snap-called.
Bartholomeus De Bont:
Tristan Ragnarsson:
The board spelled out , and Ragnarsson’s cowboys were good. The dealer counted out the two very even stacks, and as it turned out, De Bont survived with a mere 2,200.
The very next hand (the final one before the first break), Ragnarsson opened to 3,000 from the Lo-jack. Action folded to De Bont, who was forced all-in from the Big Blind; he hadn’t even looked at his cards.
Bartholomeus De Bont:
Tristan Ragnarsson:
The table shared a laugh; what a time to wake up with aces. De Bont doubled up on the board, but he will still be the short stack returning after the break.
Tristan Ragnarsson: 66,000
Bartholomeus De Bont: 4,000
