Flush Over Flush For Kapustin
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
After reaching Day 4 of the Warmup (15th position, $15,780), Oleg Ustinovich is still in the High Roller. From under the gun, he opened to 16,000, but was raised by Denis Kapustin in the big blind to 65,000. Ustinovich called, and 6♣4♣3♣ came on the flop.
Kapustin bet another 45,000 on this first street. But this time, it was Ustinovich who raised, for all his chips. Kapustin called with fewer chips.
Denis Kapustin: A♣K♣
Oleg Ustinovich: Q♣10♣
In this big setup, Ustinovich couldn't do anything against the nut flush. The 8♦ and the 4♥ completed the board, and Kapustin doubled up.
