Sopotnytskyi Scores a Double-Up
Niveau 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Antal Hamza set the stage with an early position raise to 40,000. Action folded to Taras Sopotnytskyi in the small blind, who took a moment before three-betting to 170,000. Hamza wasted no time, moving all in.
Facing a critical decision with a pay jump on the line, Sopotnytskyi went into a lengthy tank. With tension mounting, a fellow player called the clock. Sopotnytskyi let the seconds tick down, finally making the call with five seconds remaining.
Taras Sopotnytskyi: A♦K♠
Antal Hamza: Q♠Q♦
The flop delivered the drama, as Sopotnytskyi paired his king on 3♥J♣K♣. Neither the 6♥ turn nor the 9♦ river changed the outcome, securing Sopotnytskyi a timely double-up and leaving Hamza to regroup.
