Two Pair Good For Adeniya, Not Good For Clemencon

Tristan Clemencon opened to 750, and he found calls from both Martins Adeniya and Dmitry Nemirovsky. The three of them took a {5-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} flop, and Clemencon knocked the table. Adeniya took his cue to bet 1,025 at the pot, and Nemirovsky called. Clemencon snuck in a check-raise to 4,125 total. Now Adeniya was the only one to call, and they two went heads up to the {A-Hearts} turn. Clemencon bet 7,575, and Adeniya snap-called to bring the {7-Spades} river. Clemencon only had about 10,000 chips left, and he went ahead and reluctantly shoved them in. Another quick call from Adeniya, and the cards were on their backs.

Showdown
Clemencon: {9-Spades} {10-Spades}
Adeniya: {A-Diamonds} {5-Clubs}

Clemencon's two pair were inferior to Adeniya's, and he was forced to slide the rest of his chips across the felt. The two men, both EPT regulars, shared a quick conversation after the hand in which Adeniya admitted he didn't think Clemencon was that strong, and Clemencon conceded that he made a mistake somewhere along the way too.

Clemencon's EPT Prague is done here on Day 1, and Adeniya will use his chips to climb to about 55,000 or so.
