Sapitavicius Gets the Rest of Hissou's stack
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Moments after playing a four-bet pot against each other, Sirzat Hissou and Arunas Sapitavicius were once again battling each other. Hissou opened to 11,000 from the hijack with Sapitavicius and Harry Lodge calling from the button and big blind, respectively.
Hissou continued for 14,000 on the Q♥4♥3♠ flop, and only Sapitavicius called. Hissou then check-called for 22,000 on the 8♥ turn. Fireworks began to spark on the A♠ river as Hissou fired for 13,000. Sapitavicius then moved all in as the bigger stack, and Hissou, with around 245,000 behind, called for his tournament lifevafter a small bit of thinking time.
Sapitavicius tabled his A♥Q♣ for aces and queens, which bested the A♣3♣ held by Hissou.
