Beuter Doubles Up After Tough River Call
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Patrick Beuter opened for 25,000 from early position and got only one call, from big blind Markkos Ladev.
On the flop of Q♥9♥K♣, both players checked to see the 2♠ on the turn. Ladev led out for 60,000 and Beuter called.
When the 6♣ completed the board, Ladev took a few moments, then announced he was all in (1,097,000) having Beuter well covered. Beuter burned two time chips, giving it a lot of thought, before tossing in a single chip to call off his last 183,000.
Patrick Beuter: Q♦J♣
Markkos Ladev: A♥4♥
"I've got an Ace," said Ladev softly as he rolled over his cards for ace high. Beuter's middle pair of queens were good to claim the pot and double up.
