Ockenden Keeps Trending Up, Takes From Yurasov
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Dmitry Yurasov opened to 7,000 in early position. Ole Schemion called from the cutoff, Peter Ockenden called on the button and Oliver Price defended his big blind. The flop was 
and Yurasov continued with 15,000. Schemion folded, Ockenden called, and Price folded.
On the 
turn, Yurasov showed no sign of slowing down with a bet of 42,000. Within mere seconds, Ockenden committed the calling chips. The 
on the river paired the board, and now Yurasov bet 66,000. Ockenden took a quick glance at the bet and rapidly called again.
Dmitry Yurasov: 
Peter Ockenden: 
Yurasov's top pair was no match for Ockenden's top two pair, and the online phenom had to ship a sizable portion of his stack over to the British expat living in Holland.
