Kruschack Sends Veldhoen Packing with Two Pair
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
After Wolfgang Kruschack limped in from early position, Henrik Veldhoen raised the stakes to 85,000, a move that Kruschack quickly called.
As the flop revealed 5♥4♥4♦, Kruschack checked before executing a bold check-raise, going all-in after Veldhoen’s bet of 45,000. Caught off guard by this unexpected twist, Veldhoen made the call, showing A♥10♥ for a flush draw, while Kruschack proudly revealed A♠5♠, displaying two pair.
The turn brought the 2♦, and the river followed with 2♠, failing to help Veldhoen improve his hand. With no winning combination in sight, he was eliminated from the tournament.
