Thijs Maessen Eliminates a Player

Oct 12, 2017

A player in early position limped and Thijs Maessen raised to 1,500 in the next position. There were three callers before the initial limper jammed all in for around 12,000. Maessen then three-bet all in himself and the other three players all folded.

“Please no four,” muttered one player as the flop came Heart 8Spade 7Club 3. The turn was the Heart 6 and another player who folded slammed the table, evidently having folded X 6X 6.

The river was the Spade 5. “Oh shit man,” said the player who folded X 4X 4 who would have made a straight. Maessen’s Aces held and his opponent was sent to the rail.
