Stankevics Lands First Blow to Take Lead
Level 32
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Krisjanis Stankevics opened to 400,000 from the button with K♦9♠, and Guillermo Gordo defended the big blind with Q♣9♣.
On the 10♦8♦2♦ flop, Gordo check-called versus a bet of 300,000 from Stankevics.
The 7♦ hit on the turn, giving Stankevics the second nut flush, and was checked to the 7♣ river.
Gordo led out with a bet of 850,000, and Stankevics just called, sending him a chunky pot.
