Hot Start for Yurasov
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Dmitry Yurasov opened to 6,000 from under the gun and received calls from Safi Haidar in the hijack and Ihar Soika in the big blind.
The flop came K♠7♣2♠. Soika checked, Yurasov fired a 6,000 cointinuation bet, Haidar called and Soika folded.
Yurasov bet again for 17,000 on the 3♣ turn and was once again called by Haidar.
On the Q♠ river Yurasov bet 40,000. Haidar thought for about one minute before sticking in a call. Haidar had flopped top pair with K♣J♠ but Yurasov showed down Q♣Q♥ for a set on the river to take down a nice early pot.
