Pavanic Scores Early Double-Up After the Break
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Joao Sydenstricker kicked off the action with a raise to 55,000 from under the gun. Tomislav Pavanic, seated right next to him, responded by shoving his last 225,000. The rest of the table folded, and Sydenstricker made a quick call, sending them to a showdown.
Tomislav Pavanic: K♠J♦
Joao Sydenstricker: A♦K♥
Sydenstricker was ahead, and the 2♣Q♣Q♥ flop didn't help Pavanic. However, the J♥ turn gave Pavanic two pair, and the 3♥ river secured his double-up.
