The World Poker Tour is headed to Amsterdam, and this is huge news for the Netherlands.
Host Remko Rinkema talks with WPT Europe General Manager Hermance Blum and PokerNews.NL leading man Frank Op de Woerd about the exciting news and what this really means for Holland.
Jan Heitmann and Damien Lhommeau had just tangled in a bigger pot before and then faced yet another confrontation in the last level before the break. The hand itself took six minutes into the break and Lhommeau bet the flop for 11,400. PokerStars Team Pro Heitmann called to see the on the turn and the Frenchman checked.
Heitmann bet 17,900 and Lhommeau announced all in after some consideration. Heitmann snap-called with and faced the of the Frenchman. Lhommeau's request for help was granted as the dealer burned and turned the river and Heitmann was covered to leave the tournament area with a "nice hand" towards his opponent.
Just before the break, a player in early position opened for 2,400 only to have Sebastian Pauli three-bet to 7,500 from the hijack. Jannick Wrang then four-bet to 18,000 from the big, the original raiser thought long and hard before folding, and Pauli five-bet all in for roughly 75,000. Wrang, who had 89,100 total, made the call.

"I had queens," the original raiser claimed. If that was true, he's lucky he got away.
Pauli was in dire straits, and he was left wanting as the board ran out a dry .
After a player in middle position opened for 2,200, Stefan Huber three-bet to 6,700 from the cutoff. When action reach a short-stacked Jonathan Wong in the big blind, he moved all in for 20,100 and drove the original raiser from the hand. Huber made the call and the cards were turned up.

Viktor Litovchenko just scored a huge pot after knocking out Allan Udeajah. The German had already reraised to 26,000 preflop when Litovchenko shoved and Udeajah tank-called to put his stack of 95,000 chips at risk. Litovchenko had him covered and also the better hand in while Udeajah flipped over .
The flop was no good for the German and he was drawing dead after the turn, making the river meaningless.
In a huge clash we just saw Shannon Shorr secure a big triple up that puts him quite a bit over average while he came into the day with just above the starting stack of 30,000 chips.
The action started on Ioakim Papadopoulos who raised to 2,500 under the gun and a player in middle position called. Celil Iyidogan made the call as well and Shannon Shorr proceeded to three-bet to 8,000 from the button. Both blinds folded and Papadopoulos four-bet to 14,500 and the first caller folded.
Iyidogan made the call and Shorr tanked for quite some time before committing the extra chips as well.
The flop brought out and Papadopoulos bet 16,000, which was called by Iyidogan. Shorr moved all in for 21,300 and both Papadopoulos and Iyidogan called.
The turn was the and Papdopoulos check-folded when Iyidogan moved all in.
