Stoica Loses Back-to-Back Pots

Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Jose Malpelli saw K10 in the hijack and raised it to 160,000. Roman Stoica flat-called 99 on the button, and the two went heads up to the 6JQ flop.

Malpelli quickly threw in a bet of 175,000, enough to let Stoica muck his cards and take the pot.

One hand later, Raul Mestre opened QJ to 175,000 in middle position. Roman Stoica called KQ in the cutoff, and David Djian defended A3 in the big blind.

The 923 flop and 4 turn were checked by the trio, and so was the 4 river. Dijan took down the pot with A3 for two pair.
