Stokkan Takes Two

Level 30 : 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Adedapo Ajayi raised to 500,000 in middle position and Preben Stokkan called on the button.

"Not good enough to three-bet?" Ajayi said with a smile.

Ajayi bet 500,000 on the {2-Spades}{q-Clubs}{4-Hearts} flop and Stokkan called. Ajayi barreled again for 1,150,000 on the {10-Clubs} and again Stokkan stuck around. Check-check on the {j-Diamonds} river and Ajayi announced ace-high. It wasn't good as Stokkan had turned a pair with {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}.

The next hand, Austin Lewis raised under the gun and Stokkan called. Lewis continued for 300,000 on the {k-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} flop but then checked the {4-Hearts}. Stokkan bet 1 million.

"No pair, no draw," Lewis said, sending his hand muckward.
