Petersen's Set of Deuces Help Him Chip Up
Level 6
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Onur Ozgur raised to 25,000 from middle position before Jan Petersen three-bet to 67,000 from the hijack. Abdullah Alajmi cold-called from the cutoff and Ozgur stuck in the call also.
Ozgur checked the 2♠4♦6♦ flop and Petersen continued with a bet of 59,000. Alajmi called, but Ozgur folded.
Heads-up now to the 9♠ turn. Petersen tossed out a second barrel, this time for 202,000. Alajmi called again.
The Q♣ landed on the river and Petersen meticulously carved out a bet of 560,000. Alajmi took a few moments before making the call. Petersen showed a set of deuces with 2♥2♦ to take down the pot as Alajmi showed 10♦9♦ for just a pair of nines.
