Shevliakov Wins Boat Over Boat
Level 36
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Aleksandr Shevliakov completed the button with Q♠6♥ and Khossein Kokhestani checked his option with 9♦5♥ in the big blind.
The flop ran out K♦5♠6♦ and Kokhestani checked. Shevliakov bet 500,000 and Kokhestani called to see the 5♣ turn. Kokhestani made trips and quickly led for 1,500,000. Shevliakov made the call with his pair of sixes.
The river was the 6♠ and both players made a full house, Shevliakov with the best of it. Kokhestani switched to a check and Shevliakov bet nearly full pot for 4,500,000.
Kokhestani used his last time bank card before making the call. Shevliakov won the 14,500,000 pot with his bigger full house, sixes full of fives. That took Shevliakov way out in front.
