Sokolovsky Always Has It
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Alexander Sokolovsky bet 5,000 from the hijack on a flop of 10♦5♥3♠ and Paul Kristoffersson called in the small blind.
Both players checked the 8♠ turn and the Q♠ fell on the river. Kristoffersson then led out for 8,500.
Sokolovsky came back with a raise to 30,000, and Kristoffersson took a minute before calling. Sokolovsky turned over 9♠5♠ for a flush and Kristoffersson mucked.
"You always have it," a tablemate said to Sokolovsky after the hand.
