Virlanuta Hits Two Pair on the River
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Dan Petrea opened to 1,600 from the button, and was called by both players in the blinds.
All three of them checked on the flop 7?K?J?, and moved on to the turn 4?. This time, Petrea bet 1,500, and Marian Virlanuta in the small blind was the only one to call.
Then on the river 8?, Petrea fired a second barrel of 3,000 and Virlanuta called. But he directly threw his cards into the muck when Petrea showed 8?7?.
