Kravchenko Wins Blind Battle

Alex Kravchenko
Alex Kravchenko
Hold'em

In a battle of the blinds, Jani Sointula raised from the small blind and Alex Kravchenko defended in the big blind.

They took a flop of {8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and Sointula bet. Kravchenko raised. Sointula reraised and Kravchenko called.

The turn brought the {Q-Clubs} and Sointula fired again with Kravchenko making the call. The river was the {J-Diamonds} and both players checked it down.

Sointula tabled {K-Hearts}{10-Spades} for top pair on the flop, but he'd been rivered as Kravchenko showed {J-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for a flush draw that paired the jack on the river.

Sointula - 261,000
Kravchenko - 270,000
