Miegel Traps With Deuces
Level 15
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Jakob Miegel limped in from under the gun, and Artur Martirosian followed suit from the hijack. Atanas Malinov completed his small blind before Sven Stok jammed all in for 127,000.
Miegel thought it over for a bit before rejamming his seven-figure stack in the middle, covering all remaining players, who swiftly got out of the way.
Sven Stok: Q♠J♠
Jakob Miegel: 2♠2♥
The 2♣3♥5♦ flop left Stok with little hope, and he was eliminated once the 8♦ turn hit the felt.
The Q♥ river put some salt in his wound, as his top pair could not beat the set of Miegel, who received Stok's bounty token as a reward.
