Van Brugge Wins With Kicker

Kees van Brugge, who recently finished fourth at the Main Event of the Master Classics of Poker, won a checked-down pot on the river of a board :::7c:::4h:::8h:::2h:::Kc. Arne Coulier had checked the small blind and then showed :::Ac:::3d with van Brugge flipping over :::Ah:::5d for the slightly better kicker.

"Wow, how do I lose that one. Nice hand," Coulier joked.
