Level 30
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Koen De Visscher opened to 160,000 from middle position with 9♥9♣, and Henrik Veldhoen defended 10♣9♦ in the big blind.
Veldhoen picked up an up and down on the Q♣J♥4♥ flop, where Veldhoen check-called in the face of a continuation bet of 150,000 from De Visscher.
The K♦ hit on the turn, giving Veldhoen the straight. He checked once more, and De Visscher checked back.
The K♣ river completed the board, and Veldhoen led out with a bet of 175,000.
De Visscher thought it through for a bit, using a time bank, and folded fourth pair.
