Pateychuk Avoids Disaster

Andrey Pateychuk
Andrey Pateychuk

Facing a preflop raise and two calls in front, Andrey Pateychuk three-bet to 1,600 from the small blind. Action folded back to the original raiser, who four-bet shoved for around 7,000. The two flatters folded and Pateychuk instantly made the call.

Seat 5: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}
Pateychuk: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The dealer rolled out a {K-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades} flop, giving Pateychuk's opponent the lead. As Andrey began cutting out chips to send across the table, the {10-Diamonds} fell on the turn to give the Russian pro a set. The meaningless {5-Diamonds} landed on the river and Pateychuk increased his stack to around 17,000. The other player quietly made his way out of the Brasilia room.
