Beuter Doubles Up After Tough River Call
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Patrick Beuter opened for 25,000 from early position and got only one call, from big blind Markkos Ladev.
On the flop of Q?9?K?, both players checked to see the 2? on the turn. Ladev led out for 60,000 and Beuter called.
When the 6? completed the board, Ladev took a few moments, then announced he was all in (1,097,000) having Beuter well covered. Beuter burned two time chips, giving it a lot of thought, before tossing in a single chip to call off his last 183,000.
Patrick Beuter: Q?J?
Markkos Ladev: A?4?
"I've got an Ace," said Ladev softly as he rolled over his cards for ace high. Beuter's middle pair of queens were good to claim the pot and double up.
