Biriukov Gets Richer at Martov's Expense
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
With 100,000 chips in the middle on a flop of 8♥4♣7♣, Aleksandr Martov checked it over to his namesake Aleksandr Biriukov, who bet 50,000. Martov then raised to 120,000, and Biriukov called.
A 5♣ came on the turn and Martov fired 75,000, which Biriukov called.
When the Q♠ dropped on the river, both players checked. Martov showed K♦2♦ for just king-high, and Biriukov had the winner with 10♠10♣.
