Neagoe Makes the Correct Call with His Ladies
Level 4
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
The action was picked up with roughly 65,000 in the middle on a flop of 3♦4♥8♠. Darius Neagoe checked from the small blind and Andrei Stoenescu bet roughly 7,000 from middle position. Neagoe check-raised to 22,000, which Stoenescu called.
Neagoe put out a bet of 18,000 when the board-pairing 8♣ landed on the turn. Stoenescu took a few moments before he shoved for Neagoe's remaining 63,000. Neagoe, with a perplexed look on his face, pondered for quite some time before making the call.
Darius Neagoe: Q♣Q♥ 
Andrei Stoenescu: A♣10♠
Neagoe made the right call with his pocket queens, as Stoenescu was making a move with ace-high. The 3♥ river meant Neagoe doubled up through his countrymate.
