Demydenko, Niste Both Survive on the River
Mykhailo Demydenko was all in for 75,000 from middle position and up against Sirzat Hissou in the hijack.
Mykahilo Demydenko: A?Q?
Sirzat Hissou: K?Q?
Demydenko had Hissou dominated until the flop brought K?10?2? to give HIssou the lead. The turn was the 7?, while the J? fell on the river to give Demydenko a straight and a double up.
At the same time at another table, Mihai Niste moved all in for 68,000 in the small blind and Benjamin Pollak snap-called under the gun.
Mihai Niste: A?Q?
Benjamin Pollak: Q?Q?
Niste had run into Pollak's queens as the 2?5?4? flop gave him outs to a straight. The J? fell on the turn to also give him a flush draw, while the 3? river completed both draws and earned Niste a double up.
"Can somebody call the floor, please? I think he's cheating," tablemate Alejandro Lococo joked after the hand.
