Ahuja, Tishkevich Get Late Boosts
Andreas Tomazou raised to 100,000 in the hijack and was called by Ankit Ahuja on the button and big blind Eduard Norel.
The flop came 7♣6♥6♠ and Tomazou bet 150,000. Only Ahuja called to see the 6♦ turn, where Tomazou bet another 175,000.
Ahuja then raised to 400,000 and Tomazou called. Both players checked the Q♥ river and Ahuja showed J♠J♦ to take the pot.
At another table, Aksel Aygun bet 250,000 from the hijack on a flop of K♣7♠A♣ and Stanislav Tishkevich called on the button.
The turn came the 9♣ and Aygun bet another 325,000. Tishkevich again called as the 2♥ fell on the river, where Aygun slowed down and checked.
"I have a surprise hand," Tishkevich said.
"Me or you," Aygun asked.
"Me," Tishkevich said as he loudly slammed the table and checked back. Aygun showed K♦J♠, but Tishkevich had A♠K♠ to win the pot.
