Pair of Queens Golden for Sitzoukis
Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Sebastian Crane opened the action with a raise to 20,000 from early position, and Paris Sitzoukis responded with a three-bet to 75,000 from the big blind. With the two largest stacks at the table squaring off, Crane made the call to see a flop.
The dealer fanned 8♣Q♥A♣, and Sitzoukis led out for 40,000. Crane called without hesitation.
Both players checked the 7♦ turn and the K♥ river. Sitzoukis revealed Q♣2♦ for middle pair, and Crane quietly mucked his hand, offering a respectful, “Good hand.”
