Staszko Revived

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Martin Staszko at times seems impossible to eliminate in poker tournaments, consistently making deep runs. He already seemed to have accumulated more chips when we witnessed this hands moments ago.

Staszko opened for 4,100 from first position and the player to his left moved all in for 15,000. A French player a few seats down made the call and when the blinds folded Stasko moved all in for close to 100,000.

His opponent sighed deeply and looked at the ceiling shaking his head. He seemed to look around the table for some clue as to what to do. After a couple of minutes he declared pass but was reluctant to release his cards. When he did he folded {a-}{k-} for the table to see.

The all in player had {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} and Staszko {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}.

The flop was {5-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and the player who folded threw up his arms in exasperation. The turn was the {6-Diamonds} and the river delivered the {j-Diamonds}.

The Frenchman was all smiles again as Stasko dragged the pot and eliminated a player.
