Van Hoof Eclipses Two Million
"flippetyflop" was under the gun and opened to 28,000. "MCalai" three-bet to 86,500 in early position and action folded around to Jorryt "TheCleaner11" van Hoof, who cold-called in the small blind. "flippetyflop" called as well and the three players saw the flop come 
.
Action checked to "MCalai," who made a continuation-bet of 106,775. Van Hoof called and "flilppetyflop" folded, taking action heads up to the turn 
. Van Hoof checked again and MCalai bet another 160,800. Van Hoof called again. Action then went check-check on the river 
to take the hand to showdown.
Van Hoof showed 
for the missed nut flush draw and nut kickers to go with the board's pair of fives. It proved best as "MCalai" mucked and Van Hoof took down the pot, bringing his stack to 2.39 million and becoming the first player in the field to reach 2 million.
