Stand Up Trick Works For Beresford on the River

Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Conor Beresford and Justinas Jachimavicius were heads-up on a board of 10?3?4?5? when Beresford led out for 4,500 from the big blind.
Jachimavicius then moved all in under the gun and Beresford called for his last 24,500. Jachimavicius turned over Q?Q?, while Beresford had 3?2? and needed help.
"I need to stand up, right," Beresford said, rising from his seat to await the river which came the 2?. Beresford improved to two pair and doubled up, leaving Jachimavicius riding an extreme short stack.
