Kruschack Sends Veldhoen Packing with Two Pair
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
After Wolfgang Kruschack limped in from early position, Henrik Veldhoen raised the stakes to 85,000, a move that Kruschack quickly called.
As the flop revealed 5?4?4?, Kruschack checked before executing a bold check-raise, going all-in after Veldhoen’s bet of 45,000. Caught off guard by this unexpected twist, Veldhoen made the call, showing A?10? for a flush draw, while Kruschack proudly revealed A?5?, displaying two pair.
The turn brought the 2?, and the river followed with 2?, failing to help Veldhoen improve his hand. With no winning combination in sight, he was eliminated from the tournament.
