Vasylchenko Fires the River in Three-Way Pot; Sobeski Coolers Zhang For a Double
Dimitrios Kilintaris raised to 4,000 on the button and Enrico Camosci and Oleg Vasylchenko called in the blinds.
The flop came 10♦2♦5♣ and Camosci led out for 5,000. Both opponents called, and the 10♠ fell on the turn.
Camosci then bet another 11,000, and only Vasylchenko called this time. The river was the 3♣ and Camosci slowed down and checked. Vasylchenko then bet 39,000, and Camosci spent a minute leaning over the table before folding.
At the same time at an adjacent table, Yang Zhang had bet 13,000 from the big blind on a board of 9♥Q♣K♥5♠ and David Sobeski called on the button.
The river was the Q♥ and Zhang bet another 27,000. Sobeski then moved all in for 55,500, and Zhang let out a loud groan and tanked for a minute before calling.
Sobeski showed 5♦5♣ for a full house, and Zhang mucked A♥5♥. "You almost folded?" tablemate Jeffrey Sarwer asked Zhang, who nodded in reply.
"I think I played it right, I think he played it right," Sobeski added. Zhang was left with less than 10,000 and busted shortly afterward.
