Payne and Prydryk Take Two Early Pots
Level 36
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Joshua Payne raised to 1,600,000 from the button with 6♦5♣ and Jan-Peter Jachtmann called from the small blind with Q♣10♣. Alec Torelli looked down at Q♥8♠ and defended his big blind.
The flop was 5♦4♠J♥, and both players checked to Payne, who bet 2,300,000. It was too much, so Jachtmann and Torelli got away from it.
Two hands later, Ruslan Prydryk raised to 1,600,000 with A♦10♠, and Jose Aguilera called from the big blind with 6♥6♠. The flop was 9♦9♥3♥ and both players checked. They also checked the Q♥ turn before A♠ fell on the river. Aguilera checked once more and subsequently folded when Prydryk bet 1,500,000.
