Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Anatoly Chen opened the action from the cutoff to 525,000 with A♦6♣ and Tomas Patka made the call on the button with A♠J♦. The blinds got out of the way and the pair saw the flop of Q♥2♣2♠.
Both players checked their options to the 4♣ turn and again action went check-check. The 10♦ completed the board and after a few moments both players checked to a showdown.
Patka scored the pot with his ace-jack high and took down the first hand of the day.
