Alontsau’s Two Pair Overpowers Studniarz’s
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Sylwia Studniarz raised to 100,000 from the button, and Siarhei Alontsau called from the big blind.
On the K?Q?Q? flop, Alontsau checked, and Studniarz continued with a 75,000 bet. Alontsau called.
Both players checked the 4? turn.
When the A? landed on the river, Alontsau checked again, and Studniarz bet 200,000. Alontsau quickly called, revealing A?K? for two pair, aces and kings. Studniarz showed A?8? for two pair, aces and queens, and Alontsau took the pot.
With a grin, Alontsau said, “Maybe you have jack-ten – you're dangerous,” before claiming the chips.
