Staszko With a Higher Two Pair

We join the action on a flop of [Ad] [Jc] [9h] and there has been two checks, up front, before Martin Staszko bets 1,100 from position. Petar Zografov check-raises to 2,700 in the blinds and a player seated in first position folds.

Turn: [7s]

Zografov bets 3,700 and Staszko calls.

River: [6d]

Zografov bets 6,600 and a puzzled look falls off Staszko’s face, but his interest is piqued enough for him to make the call and it’s good.

Zografov shows [9c] [7d] for two pair, and Staszko shows [As] [9s] for a higher two pair.

Staszko ~ 44,000
Zografov ~ 30,000
