Pustovoi Profits From Song's Bluff

Frank Visser

Level 4 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante

At the newest table of the tournament, Yunkyu Song in the cutoff and Aleksandr Pustovoi on the button had created a pot of 17,000 preflop.

Song then fired bets of 2,400 on the A♠A♣5♦ flop and 3,600 on the 3♣ turn, being called by Pustovoi both times.

On the 2♣ river, he jammed all in, covering Pustovoi's stack of 11,500. Pustovoi quickly called off, prompting Song to table K♣Q♠ for king-high.

Pustovoi had called down with A♦Q♥, and his trip aces won him the pot as he doubled up.
