Semaska's Aces Hold to Scoop a Solid Pot
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With around 260,000 already in the pot and the flop reading 5?5?10?, Vytautas Semaska, first to act in early position, checked. Kirill Shcherbakov followed up with a 55,000 bet, which Semaska called.
Both players checked the 8? turn.
On the 4? river, Semaska took the lead with a 35,000 bet, which Shcherbakov snap-called. At showdown, Shcherbakov revealed QxQx, but Semaska's A?A? gave him the better two pair, earning him the sizable pot.
