Deuces Lose Against the Queens
Level 4
: 200/400, 400 ante
With around 3,000 in the pot and the flop revealing 5?5?9?, Barny Boatman checked to Kaza Paterson, who made a move with a bet of 2,000. After a moment's thought, Boatman called.
When the J? hit the turn, Boatman took the lead with a bet of 5,000, which Paterson promptly called.
Both players checked the 6? river, and Boatman revealed 2?2? for two pair, fives and deuces. He already sensed he might not be winning this one, and he was right. Paterson turned over Q?Q? for two pair, queens and fives, taking down the pot.
