Metaal Check Raised The Champ

On a {7-Spades} {5-Spades} {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {2-Spades} board Govert Metaal checked to Steve Billirakis who bet 600 into a small pot. The best Dutch player on the live circuit of 2011 threw in a check raise to 2,500 and that got Billirakis tanking. After a while he folded and said, "I guess I shouldn't have bet". Metaal produced a little smile as he was stacking the chips. Both players are doing well and could be clashing again shortly.
