Stani Rockets Ahead
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
There was around 15,000 in the pot when we arrived, and the two players in the hand, EPT Tallinn winner Kevin Stani in the big blind and Robert Scott two seats to his left, had got as far as the turn, the board reading .
Stani bet out 6,800 as we arrived, leaving himself a scant 11,000 behind. Scott pondered for a while before making the call.
The river was the and this time Stani checked. Scott checked behind and turned over pocket - but Stani revealed pocket and took the pot, putting him up to around 40,000.
"Good thing you didn't raise before the flop," chuckled Stani - Scott may be down to 19,000 and looking rather crestfallen, but he did well not to go broke there.
