Top Pair for Panak
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
After Christian Steiner limped from early position, Elad Ratzam in the hijack raised to 900, and was called by Adrian Filip in the small blind, Igor Panak in the big blind and by Steiner.
Ratzam continued for 1,500 on a flop of 4♦7♣Q♠. Filip folded, but Panak raised to 4,000. Steiner folded, and Ratzam made the call.
On the turn 3♦, Panak fired a second barrel of 4,500, but checked the river A♣. Ratzam, who called the turn, decided to bet 5,500 on the river.
Panak went into the tank, and eventually called with K♠Q♣. It was the winning hand, as Ratzam had Q♦2♣.
