Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Three-way to the Q♠10♣10♥ flop, Nikita Kuznetsov bet 300 under the gun, which Matthew Micallef raised to 1,100 in the cutoff. The third player quickly moved out of the way, but Kuznetsov stuck around with a call.
After the 2♠ turn was checked through, Kuznetsov fired 1,300 on the 3♦ river. Micallef surrendered the pot by mucking his cards.
A short time later, Kuznetsov was in the big blind and, with about 18,000 in the pot, made it 5,000 to go on the A♣Q♦J♦4♦5♠ river.
His opponent was Jack Edjourian in the cutoff, who weighed his options for a while before letting go of his hand.
