"Iceman" Holds With One Pair
Level 5
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Cutoff Roman Verenko made a bet of 27,000 into a pot of roughly 50,000 on a turn of J♣Q♦7♦6♣. "Iceman" then shoved in his stack of 111,500 on the button. Verenko spent some time in the tank before he decided to call.
"Iceman": A♥K♥Q♥8♥ 
Roman Verenko: Q♠10♠10♦9♥
Both players ended up with queens and sixes on the 6♦ river, but "Iceman"s ace kicker awarded him his double-up.
