Stanciu Spikes the River to Double Through Pateychuk
Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
In a preflop confrontation Traian Stanciu found himself all in for approximately 400,000 from the small blind and was up against Andrey Pateychuk in middle position who held a covering stack.
Traian Stanciu: K♣10♣
Andrey Pateychuk: A♥10♥
Stanciu was in rough shape against the bigger ten and found no help on the 2♠6♦4♥ flop. The J♦ turn was also a brick but the K♠ river gave Stanciu top pair to secure a full double up.
Elsewhere in the tournament area, Nenad Dukic was recently eliminated.
