Suutari Edges It Out
Level 6
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
The flop came A♣A♥8♠ with around 8,500 in the pot. Juho Suutari, first to act in the big blind, checked to Atanas Malinov in the hijack, who bet 2,000. Suutari made the call.
The 7♥ landed on the turn, and Suutari check-called again, this time for 5,000.
When the 7♣ paired the board on the river once more, Suutari checked again. Malinov fired 14,000, and Suutari called. Malinov showed J♣10♣, but Suutari revealed Q♥8♥ for the slightly better two pair, taking down the pot.
