Aerts Check Folds

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

When we walked up to the table in the orange section of the Amazon Room, we saw three people check to Pieter Aerts (the Belgian poker player, not to be mixed up with Peter Aerts). He bet out 500 on a {7-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{K-Spades} | {K-Diamonds} board and Nancy Birnbaum in the small blind made a raise to 1,125. The two other players involved in the pot quickly folded, but Belgian player Aerts made the call.

Aerts, who won the Heads-Up tournament during EPT Deauville this year, and Brinbaum saw the {10-Clubs} fall on the river. Birnbaum bet out 1,500 but Aerts folded after just about five seconds of thinking.
