Small Pair Good for Lagodich
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Tristan Wade opened to 2,100 in early position and Frank Lagodich made the call on the button.
Wade checked the 8♠7♣5♠ flop and called after Lagodich fired 3,000 into the middle. Both players then checked the Q♥ turn.
Another pair of checks followed the J♥ river, with Lagodich turning over A♣9♣ for ace-high. Wade showed down his 4♣4♦ to take down the pot with the only pair.
