Verenko Playing the Wrong Game? Nope!
Level 18
: Limits 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Seven Card Stud
Roman Verenko: Xx2♠/2♣7♦2♦
Alex Livingston: XxXx/K♣4♥10♦ - folded fifth street
Roman Verenko brought in then defended his bring-in to a completion from Alex Livingston.
On fourth street, Verenko check-raised a bet from Livingston, which gave the Canadian a moment of pause. Ultimately he called and on fifth street now faced a bet from Verenko with his open pair of deuces.
Livingston tapped the game plaque that read "Seven Card Stud" and looked at his opponent. Verenko nodded, acknowledging that he knew what game they were playing.
Livingston then shrugged and folded his hand. Verenko flashed him the 2♠ showing that he had at least trip deuces, and the pot was pushed his way.
