Hand #208 - Peter Eastgate

[user75032]

Peter Eastgate has the button. He limps in before Ivan Demidov raises 1.95 million on top. Eastgate calls, and off to the flop we go.

It comes down {9-Hearts}

, with Demidov first to act. He reaches for his chips and cuts out a bet of 3.625 million. Eastgate has to think for thirty seconds before calling.

The turn brings a second heart, the {J-Hearts}

. Both quickly check to the river, which is the {Q-Spades}

. Several straights are possible with this board. Demidov announces 7 million and is called by Eastgate before he can even get the chips in the pot. It's a good call; Demidov shows {A-Spades}
