Svach Hero Calls Sezer With His Favorite Hand

David Salituro

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Pavel Svach three-bet from the big blind before the flop and Memik Sezer came along from the hijack.

The flop came Q?9?6? and Svach bet 55,000. Sezer called and the 2? fell on the turn. Svach then continued for 225,000 and Sezer again called.

The 5? fell on the river and Svach bet 100,000. Sezer then moved all in for 430,000 and Svach called.

"Nice hand," Sezer said as he showed A?8? for just ace-high.

"Yes," Svach yelled out as he slammed down 5?3? for a pair of fives to win the pot. "Five-three my hand, my aces. My nickname is Pavel 5-3," Svach said. Both Svach and Sezer stopped to snap photos of the board before Sezer made his way to the payout desk.
