Tajiou's Kings Hold Up, Iwanov-Petkin's Prediction Comes True
Nivel 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Mounir Tajiou had his stack of 12,400 in the middle preflop and was at risk to Pasi Sormunen. Dimitar Iwanov-Petkin had a decision to make having already put in a few chips and said "I will fold the winning hand," then laid down pocket jacks.
Mounir Tajiou: K♣K♥ 
Pasi Sormunen: Q♠10♦
"I didn't expect you to be that strong," said Sormumen.
Tajiou was well ahead with his pocket kings, but it seemed that Iwanov-Petkiv was correct when he said that he'd fold the winning hand as the A♣6♠J♦ flop would have given him a set. The 2♥7♦ runout didn't change anything, and Tajiou doubled up his stack.
