Misclick Turns Bad for De Meulder's Opponent

Matthias De Meulder is one of the players seated in the much smaller Tournament Room B. He was up to 60,000 early on, and still hovers around that stack. De Meulder got up from the table and told us the details of the hand he doubled in at the beginning of the day.

The player in the cut off made a raise to 400 in the 75/150 level, and with off suit De Meulder called on the button. The player in the big blind wanted to call by throwing in four 100 chips, but made a mistake and had three 100 and one 500 chip, which was declared a raise to 800.

De cut off made the call, which told De Meulder that he had the best hand at that point. De Meulder re squeezed to 2,800 and the big blind made the call, the cut off now folded.

The flop brought and the big blind checked. De Meulder bet 3,200 and the big blind made the call. The turn brought the to the table and the big blind checked. De Meulder now bet 5,800 and the big blind shoved for 23,000 total.
