A Scandie Three-Quartering

They may not be well known Stateside, but Torstein Iversen and Andreas Hoivold are familiar names over here in Europe, the latter of whom recently won 300K plus in the Dortmund EPT.

Anyhow, these two Scandinavian pros crossed swords in Stud Eight or Better, but it was Hoivold who came up trumps, check-calling two 1.2K bets on the flop and turn of a {8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{K-Clubs} board before checking down the {6-Hearts} river.

Possibly fearing he was in trouble, Iversen meekly revealed his {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} only for Hoivold to deal out a good old fashioned three-quartering with {5-Spades}{A-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs}.
