Van Der Merwe Chips Up in Three-Way Action
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Three ways to the 8?5?4?4? turn, Howard Lipman bet 3,000 and was called by Wesley Blom as well as Wouter Van Der Merwe. The 6? river was checked to Van Der Merwe and he bet 5,000. Lipman quickly called while Blom folded.
Van Der Merwe tabled 10?2? for a flush and Lipman mucked the 4?.
"I flopped two pair, big blind special," Blom said.
