Ivan Demidov Wins a Huge Pot from Peter Eastgate

Ivan Demidov

Peter Eastgate opened for 300,000 (for the third time in the last four hands) and Ivan Demidov made the call from the small blind. The flop was {A-Clubs} {7-Hearts} {2-Spades}. Demidov checked, Eastgate bet 450,000, and Demidov called. The turn was the {10-Clubs} and both players checked. The river was the {2-Clubs}. Demidov considered carefully before leading out for 650,000 and Eastgate went into the tank for two minutes before putting in a raise to 1.9 million. Ultimately, Demidov made the call.

Eastgate's {9-Spades} {10-Spades} couldn't beat Demidov's {A-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} and Demidov raked in the monster pot. Eastgate is down to 8.75 million while Demidov now sits on 7.77 million.
