Paez Keeps Sliding
Level 27
: 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Hand #198:
Raul Paez: 
/
Daniel Idema: /
Idema completed on the first round, and Paez raised it. Idema made the call, then took the lead on fourth when he caught a second low and Paez caught the queen. The back-and-forth continued on fifth, as Paez bet and Idema called. Both checked sixth, and Idema bet seventh. Paez made the call.
"Two pair," Idema said quietly, turning over 
for sixes and fives. Paez mucked in frustration.
