Stoika's Second Pair is Good
Level 4
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Roman Stoika raised to 6,000 under the gun and Adrian State called from the big blind.
State check-called Stoika's continuation-bet of 11,000 on the 6♠7♥K♠ flop.
A Q♣ arrived on the turn and both players checked to see the 8♣ complete the board. State bet 10,000, and was quickly called by Stoika.
State showed a busted flush draw, and lost the pot to Stoika's AxQx for second pair.
