Diamonds Are Lopko's Best Friend
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The action was picked up with the cards already on their backs.
Marcel Lopko: A♦J♠
Maksim Haitsiukevich: QxQx
Lopko was in bad shape but gained extra outs when the flop came 4♣2♦3♦. The 8♦ on the turn nearly doubled his outs, and the 10♦ on the river gave him the nut flush to win the pot.
