Furuse Wins the Flip
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
David Cabrera opened to 5,000 in the hijack and Niklas Astedt called in the cutoff before Kazuomi Furuse shoved for 61,000 from the big blind. Cabrera took a peek at the stack of Astedt to his left, then announced a call. Astedt folded.
Kazuomi Furuse: A♠K♣ 
David Cabrera: 10♠10♣
It was a fair flip that looked to be going Furuse's way after he paired his ace on the 5♦J♦A♦ flop. A 7♦ on the turn did bring around some chop possibilities, but the A♥ river improved Furuse to trips, which earned him a double-up.
