Two Pots for Kuznetsov; Cracks Sanchez's Aces
Level 31
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Halil Tasyurek, with K♠Q♦, opened to 300,000 from the cutoff before Nikita Kuznetsov three-bet to 1,100,000 from the big blind with A♠2♥. Tasyurek folded.
The following hand, Jose Gonzalez Sanchez looked down at A♥A♣ from under the gun and made it 300,000. Kuznetsov called with 9♠9♣ from the small blind.
The 8♦5♥3♥ flop saw Kuznetsov check-call for 250,000, which brought in the 7♠ turn. Action checked through the 6♣ river, giving Kuznetsov a straight. He then led out for 1,200,000 into a pot of 1,400,000. Sanchez used three of his time banks and called only to see the bad news.
