Sokolov Gifted Chips to Move into Chip Lead

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

Rachid Amamou limped under the gun and Artur Osipov raised to 10,000. Roman Sokolov then three-bet to 22,000. Amamou folded and Osipov called.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Osipov checked. Sokolov bet enough to put his opponent in and eventually, Osipov flicked in a chip for his last 40,000 chips.

Roman Sokolov: {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}
Artur Osipov: {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}

The turn {j-Spades} opened the door to a chop, but only with a seven as a queen would give Sokolov a straight and the river {2-Hearts} sealed the elimination as Osipov hurriedly shoved his chips forward and left the tournament area.
