Stanciu Cracks Kings for Commanding Lead
Level 36
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Traian Stanciu limped in from the button and Maurice Nass raised to 1,100,000, which his opponent called.
They headed to the Q♠Q♦J♦ flop on which Nass opted to check. Stanciu bet 950,000 for Nass to move all-in and the instant call of Stanciu followed.
Traian Stanciu: Q♥8♥
Maurice Nass: K♠K♥
Nass sunk back into his chair in disgust and found no lucky punch with the 2♦ turn or 3♣ river. Stanciu doubled for 4,850,000 to take a commanding lead.
