Kuznetsov Cracks Aces to Climb Further

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Nikita Kuznetsov checked from the hijack on a 8Q3J turn. Evgenii Aleksandrov was in the hijack and added 20,000 to the pot of 40,000 with a bet. Kuznetsov weighed his options for a while before he called.

The 10 appeared as the river. Kuznetsov checked once more, seeing Aleksandrov quickly check behind. Kuznetsov showed Q9 for a straight, leaving the AA of Aleksandrov in the dust.
