Rinne's Two Pair Beats Dyrstad's Two Pair
Level 10
: 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Allan Dyrstad opened to 3,000 from early position and was called by Toivo Rinne in the hijack.
Rinne called a 3,500 bet from Dyrstad on the K♥3♥6♦ flop and a 7,200 bet from Dyrstad on the K♦ turn.
Both players checked down when the 8♣ completed the board and Dyrstad announced "Two pair," as he tabled 5♠5♣ for kings and fives. Rinne showed 7♠7♥ for a better two pair and was sent the pot.
