Zhiv Outflops Parshuto
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
A pot was brewing on Table #8 where Dmitry Gorbachev had 6,000 chips in front of him in the small blind, Grigory Zhiv had then made it 20,000, and Dmitrii Parshuto had shoved for around 43,000. Gorbachev folded, but Zhiv eventually made the call.
Dmitrii Parshuto: A♠K♦ 
Grigory Zhiv: A♥Q♥
Zhiv really didn't want to put the extra chips into the pot as he knew he was behind, but his mood swiftly changed after the flop of 10♥7♣Q♠ improved him to a pair of queens. Parshuto needed to hit a king or a jack to stay alive but the runout of 4♥Q♦ gave Zhiv trip queens, and eliminated Parshuto.
