Andrusiak Busts Vigna and Secures Triple Up

Level 5 : Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Stefan Dimitrov
Stefan Dimitrov

Mykyta Andrusiak opened to 1,100 in early position and was met with a three-bet to 3,300 by Stefan Dimitrov in middle position. Lucien Vigna made the cold-call on the button.

Action folded back to Andrusiak, who reached for chips and four-bet to 10,500. After significant periods of thought, both Dimitrov and Vigna called, creating a monster pot.

On the 453 flop, Andrusiak checked to Dimitrov. Dimitrov pondered the spot for around two minutes before announcing he was all-in, covering both of his opponents.

Vigna went into the tank and eventually called, but the action was not over as Andrusiak quickly moved his chips into the middle.

Lucien Vigna: 99 All in
Mykyta Andrusiak: KK All in
Stefan Dimitrov: QQ

Incredibly, all three players had overpairs to the board, with Andrusiak loving life with his pair of kings.

The A turn brought a bit of a sweat with any deuce leading to a chopped pot, but the 5 rolled off on the river to send Andrusiak a huge pot. Dimitrov won the small side pot to send Vigna to the rail.
