Level 30
: 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Simon Brandstrom raised to 200,000 from under the gun and Balakrishna Patur defended his big blind.
The flop came 
, Patur check-called the 200,000 continuation-bet of Brandstrom.
They both checked through the 
on the turn to the 
on the river. Patur bet 350,000 and Brandstrom tanked, using a time bank card, and then called. Patur tabled 
for the two pair on the board with the ten-kicker. Brandstrom flipped over 
for the same two pair on the board but with the king-kicker to claim the pot.
