Pateychuk Makes the Right Call to Double Through Vampan
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Andrey Pateychuk completed in the small blind and Daniel Vampan checked his option in the big blind.
Pateychuk bet 300,000 on the 2♥5♦Q♥ flop and Vampan called. Pateychuk then sized up to 1,500,000 on the 4♣ turn and Vampan responded by raising all in. Pateychuk called off with the effective stack of 6,500,000.
Andrey Pateychuk: Q♣J♦
Daniel Vampan: 3♦2♠
Pateychuk arguably made the right call with top pair but there were plenty of cards he needed to dodge as Vampan had bottom pair and an open-ended straight draw.
"Pair the board!" someone at the table joked ambiguously.
The river brought the 8♥ and Pateychuk's queens held up to secure the double-up.
