Tishkevich Hits Top Pair
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Stanislav Tishkevich opened to 4,000 from early position, but Alexander Tkatschew to his left three-bet to 12,500. All the other players folded to Tishkevich again, who called.
Tkatschew continued with a bet of 7,500 on the 7?5?A? flop, and Tishkevich eventually called. But the 5? on the turn slowed down the action as both players checked.
The 2? came on the river, with Tishkevich leading out for 25,000. Tkatschew snap-called, but mucked his cards as Tishkevich revealed A?Q? for top pair.
