Strazisar Turns Two Pair to Survive
Level 17
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
After losing a majority of his stack in the previous hand, Jan Strazisar jammed for 1,335,000 from the button. He was at risk to Pedro Fernandes Cassar, who was in the small blind.
Jan Strazisar: K♥Q♦
Pedro Fernandes Cassar: A♥6♣
Stazisar looked defeated after the A♠Q♣9♥ flop, but was back in good spirits after making two pair on the K♣ turn to move ahead. He returned to his seat after the 3♠ river, with a very elevated heartbeat.
