Zukowicz Doubles Through Munteanu
Level 15
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Bogdan-Andrei Munteanu opened to 15,000 from the small blind and Monika Zukowicz defended from the big blind.
The flop came A♥5♠4♦. Munteanu fired a 10,000 continuation bet which was called by Zukowicz.
Munteanu bet again for 18,000 on the 5♠ turn and Zukowicz moved all in for 65,000. Munteanu snap-called with a covering stack to put Zukowicz at risk.
Monika Zukowicz: 10♠4♠
Bogdan-Andrei Munteanu: A♦K♥
Both players had connected with the board. Munteanu was well ahead with aces up but still needed to fade a spade or a four to score the knockout. The Q♠ river gave Zukowicz a flush to score a full double up at Munteanu's expense.
