Shcherbakov Over-Bet Shoves Again, Stacks Sibgatova

Kai Cocklin

Level 2 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

A full board of A♣4♠9♥3♣8♣ was showing with around 50,000 chips in the middle when Kirill Shcherbakov had overbet shoved the river yet again, this time with Alisa Sibgatova facing the bet.

Sibgatova had around 80,000 in her stack and after thinking it over for a few minutes, she decided to call.

Shcherbakov then tabled Q♣10♣ for a backdoored flush, and Sibgatova was forced to reveal A♦2♦ before she vacated her seat.

Level 7 : Blinds 800/1,500, 1,500 ante

Joris Ruijs's stack had dwindled down to a handful of big blinds and he got them into the middle with Giorgii Skhulukhiia putting him at risk.

Joris Ruijs: J♣10♦ All in
Giorgii Skhulukhiia: A♦K♠

Ruijs was looking for some help from the board but the 8♣4♣Q♦8♦4♠ didn't deliver anything he needed, which meant his bullet was dusted off and the rest of his stack now belonged to Skhulukhiia.

Giorgii Skhulukhiia	70,000 30,000	30,000
Joris Ruijs	Busted
