Adam’s Straight Tops Traskevich’s Two Pair
Level 13
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Nikolay Traskevich opened the action from early position with a raise to 7,000, and both Huseyn Erbay on the button and Michael Adam in the big blind made the call.
The J?4?A? flop saw all three players check, keeping the pot small.
When the 10? hit the turn, Traskevich took the lead again with a 16,000 bet, and this time only Adam stuck around, calling.
On the Q? river, Adam led out with a 10,000 bet, and Traskevich snap-called. Adam revealed K?6?, showing a straight. Traskevich, shaking his head in frustration, showed Q?J? for two pair, clearly displeased with how the hand ended.
