Goryachev Gets There

[user344984]

Level 13 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Endre Sagstuen opened from middle position with a raise to 110,000 and Viacheslav Goryachev called two to his left. The dealer spread a flop, on which Sagstuen opted to put out a continuation bet of 175,000. Goryachev called again, and the two players went to a turn.

Sagstuen continued again, this time betting 300,000 before Goryachev, seemingly reluctantly, put his entire 570,000-chip stack in. It took no time at all for Sagstuen to call, tabling for two pair, way out in front of Goryachev's . Goryachev looked set to leave the tournament area, but was saved by the deck as the came down on the river, counterfeiting Sagstuen's two pair.
