Volov Wins a Massive Pot in a Blind vs. Blind Flip
Level 7
: 300/600, 600 ante
Tauri Taimre opened to 1,200 from the small blind. Vladimir Volov three-bet to 3,500 from the big blind before Taimre four-bet to 10,000.
Volov five-bet to 26,000 and Taimre paused for less than a minute before he six-bet jammed for about 77,000. Volov, who barely had his opponent covered, made the call.
Tauri Taimre: 
Vladimir Volov: 
It was a classic flip situation with Volov slightly ahead before the flop. The 
flop didn't pair Taimre but did give him two more outs for a potential gutshot broadway straight draw.
The 
on the turn and the 
on the river were both safe cards for Volov and he doubled up to a huge stack of around 160,000. Meanwhile, Taimre shook his head on the way out in what could have been if he instead won the hand.
