Demydenko Hits Two Pair on the River to Boost His Stack
Nivel 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
With about 3,500 in the pot and the board showing K♥2♥3♠, Traian Stanciu and Mykhailo Demydenko both checked to Vitalii Viunchenko, who bet 1,000. Both players made the call.
The turn brought the 6♦, and the action was the same: two checks from Stanciu and Demydenko, followed by Viunchenko betting 4,000, which they both called again.
On the river, with the 4♥ on board, everyone checked one more time, leading to a showdown. Stanciu revealed 8♠8♥ for a pair of eights, but Demydenko had the better hand, showing 6♣4♣ for two pair. He added to his already decent stack with that lucky turn of events.
