Ladev Calls River Bluff to Double Stack
Nivel 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action folded around to Thomas Santerne, who completed the small blind. Markkos Ladev raised to 20,000 from the big blind and Santerne called.
Both players opted to check on the flop of 8♦Q♠2♠ to the K♥ turn. Santerne led out for 38,000 and Ladev called.
The river came the 4♦ and Santerne pushed all in, putting his opponent under pressure. But Ladev wasn't ready to fold and didn't feel the pressure. His hand was too strong.
Ladev made the call for 145,000 and turned over K♦2♦ for two pair, kings and deuces. Santerne had A♣6♦ for a bluff and so Ladev won the pot to double up his stack.
