Khamatgareev Rivers a Straight to Take Big Pot

Level 1 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Irena Macesovic raised to 900 from under the gun before Ufuk Erkmen three-bet to 2,000 on the button. Ravil Khamatgareev called in the small blind, as did Macesovic as they went three handed to the {k-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{a-Spades} flop.

Action checked to Erkmen who continued for 2,200, with both opponents calling. The turn came the {k-Spades} and Macesovic opened the betting with 5,300.

Erkmen and Khamatgareev both called as the {4-Spades} fell on the river. Khamatgareev now took his turn to open the betting, firing out 18,000. Macesovic quickly called, while Erkmen tanked for nearly two minutes before folding.

Khamatgareev turned over {5-Hearts}{2-Hearts} for the rivered straight and Macesovic mucked.

Paulina Loeliger and Ghanim Dashti, who has reentered after failing to survive the first two days, are also seated at this table.
