Pateychuk Takes Some from Stoika
Level 26
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Roman Stoika made it 800,000 to go from middle position and Andrey Pateychuk three-bet to 2,800,000 from the button. After the blinds folded, Stoika called to see a flop.
Stoika knuckled the table on the K♦5♠2♦ flop and Pateychuk continued with a bet of 1,400,000. Stoika carved out the call.
The 3♣ came on the turn, and Stoika checked. Pateychuk put out a second barrel of 4,800,000, and Stoika called again.
Stoika checked for the last time when the 4♥ landed on the river, and after burning through one of his time bank cards, Pateychuk checked back.
Stoika flipped up K♠10♠ for a pair of kings, but was second best to the A♥K♣ of Pateychuk for top pair that turned into a straight on the river.
