Pateychuk Looking For His Triple Crown

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

In October 2011 Russian player Andrey Pateychuk won the EPT San Remo for €680,000 ($937,530). A couple of months later he won the WPT Prague for € 450,000 ($599,720). Last year he couldn't win a bracelet, despite countless effort, but this year he's back. He's looking for his Triple Crown and what better tournament to win than one where first prize is guaranteed a million, right?

We just saw him doubling up. On a {A-Spades}{4-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop he pushed his 1,825 to the middle. His opponent made the call and turned over {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for top-pair. Pateychuk had the better of it with his {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts} and that hand held up: {K-Diamonds} on the turn and {2-Spades} on the river. Pateychuck doubled up but is still down on the day.
