Kuznetsov Goes Small With Big Hand; Blaison Doubles With Better Kicker

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Nikita Kuznetsov bet 105,000 on a 5JJ9 turn from the small blind. Rodrigo Selouan called on the button, seeing his opponent size down to 35,000 on the 10 river.

Selouan quickly tossed in a call, but he mucked his cards once Kuznetsov showed 55 for a full house.

Over at another table, Hugo Blaison checked the 8K6JJ completed board from the big blind to Laurent Polito in the hijack. Polito put his opponent all-in for 135,000, sending him into the tank.

Blaison spent all of his time banks before he slammed in calling chips. Polito tabled K9 for kings and jacks, but Blaison had him outkicked with his K10 and secured a double-up.
