Sydenstricker's Winning Streak Comes to an End
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Simon Wiciak raised to 500,000 under the gun with A?10? and, for the third time so far at the final table, received a call by Joao Sydenstricker holding 9?9? in early position.
Both players checked the 7?10?8? flop before Wiciak led out for 1,150,000 on the 2? turn with his pair of tens.
Sydenstricker called with his nines and straight draw but missed the 8? river and both players checked, Wiciak finally taking a pot off his Brazilian nemesis.
