From Russia With Love

The same table which saw a 45,000-chip pot develop on the second deal of the day just had another major collision take place.
The action began when four players limped into the pot, only to see Olga Petrovskaya raise to 350 from the button. All four limpers (a group which included the small blind, a middle position player, the cutoff and the hijack) all came along for the ride.
When the dealer fanned a flop of 
across the felt the action was checked three times until cutoff fired out a bet of 350. Unimpressed, Petrovskaya opted to raise the action to 1,500, and the cutoff flatted to see the 
fall on fourth street.
The cutoff led out once again, this time for 600, and Petrovskaya reapplied the pressure with a raise to 2,500. After another smooth call from the cutoff, the river brought the 
to the table to pair the board.
Firing a third barrel, the cutoff flicked a bet of 1,200 into the middle, only to see the relentless Russian native to her left raise again, making it 5,000 to go. That bet was essentially snap-called and the cutoff rolled over her 
with the confidence, believing her full house to have bested a likely club flush.
Instead, Petrovskaya coolly revealed her 
, tabling the best boat on board to claim ownership of the huge pot. Petrovskaya, an adept student of the game who recently placed 4th in another Atlantic City tournament, will now be a force to contend with as she now holds a big stack with which to bully her opponents.
