Vayssieres Gets Rivered by Pavlov, Gets It Right Back the Next Hand

David Salituro

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

With around 150,000 in the middle on a board of 5?3?8?K?, Atanas Pavlov bet 116,000 from under the gun and Nicolas Vayssieres called in the big blind.

Both players checked the 10? river and Vayssieres showed the 5?. "Let me see the other one," Pavlov said as Vayssieres revealed the A?. Pavlov turned over A?10? for a rivered pair of tens to win the pot.

The next hand, Nate Silver moved all in for 150,000 in middle position and Vayssieres called in the small blind. Pavlov then reshoved and Vayssieres snap-called for around 350,000.

Nate Silver: 9?9?
Nicolas Vayssieres: A?A?
Atanas Pavlov: 10?10?

Vayssieres had woken up with aces and held on through the Q?5?6?8?2? board to double up off Pavlov and send Silver to the rail.
