Sijpkens in Trouble Again

Michiel Sijpkens is back on the short stack in a hurry. He opened his button to 480,000 was called only by small blind John Dolan. Both players checked an ace-high, paired flop, {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. When the turn came {j-Spades} Dolan tried a bet of 425,000. Sijpkens called to see the {10-Spades} hit the river. Dolan made a bet of 1.1 million. Sijpkens finally woke up with a raise to 2.6 million, but Dolan responded by moving all in for about 3.5 million total (900,000 more). Sijpkens couldn't fold {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}, which was a problem as Dolan showed {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}.

Sijpkens Wins Flip to Double Up

That break came at a great time for Michiel Sijpkens, allowing him a chance to cool off slightly. But coming back from the break he still had to win a flip against John Racener to right his ship. Racener opened for 450,000 pre-flop, then called after Sijpkens jammed from the big blind for about 3.0 million. Sijpkens tabled {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, while Racener showed {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}. It was a four in the window, {5-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades}, with no further help materializing for Racener.

Clements Can't Stand a Shove

We had an exceedingly rare three-way limped pot out of the break, with Brandon Steven and the blinds, Scott Clements and Michiel Sijpkens, taking a flop of {q-Spades}{j-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Clements had first action and bet 435,000. That bet folded Sijpkens, allowing Steven to raise to about 1.0 million. Clements responded by three-betting to 1.7 million, but quickly folded to Steven's all-in shove.

Steven is up to 7.4 million, while Clements now has only 4.1 million.
