Yusupov Doubles With Full House as Thiriart Plays for Bounty
Level 15
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Mekan Yusupov was all-in from late position for less than 25,000 and was called by Arthur Thiriart in the big blind, who had him covered as players flipped their cards.
Mekan Yusupov: K♠Q♦ 
Arthur Thiriart: 3♦2♠
The board ran out Q♠10♣K♥K♣J♦ and Yusopov made two pair on the flop and a full house on the turn.
"Chop, chop...", said a neutral player.
Thiriart had clearly been playing for the bounty, which had just come into play, but it cost him a big chunk of his stack, which went over to Yusupov for the double up.
