Vaskresenski Paid on River
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Action was on the river on a board of 9♦Q♣7♣9♣5♠ and Tuen Mulder had checked it over to his opponent. Maksim Vaskresenski fired out a bet of 12,000, sending Mulder into deep thought. He made the call, only for Vaskresenski to flip over the winning hand, Q♦10♠ for two pair.
During the first couple of levels, Mulder lost nearly half of his stack while Vaskresenski chipped up to put himself among the early chip leaders.
