Queens Good for Rasskazov
Level 5
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The action was picked up on the turn in a hand between Belarmino De Souza from the small blind and Pavel Rasskazov from the hijack.
With the board reading 8?7?5?4?, De Souza led with a bet of 50,000 and Rasskazov put in the call.
On the 9? river, De Souza fired again for 55,000 which sent Rasskazov deep into the tank. After almost two minutes of thinking, he decided to put in the call.
Belarmino De Souza: 10?10?
Pavel Rasskazov: Q?Q?
Both players held an overpair to the board but Rasskazov's queens were best as he dragged a sizeable pot.
