Hassan Wins a Flip Against Novak
Level 5
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Andrii Novak put in a min-raise and was three-bet by Ali Hassan two seats over. When it got back to Novak, he four-bet to 17,500, and Hassan shoved for just under 40,000. Novak quickly called.
Ali Hassan: 6♥6♦ 
Andrii Novak: A♥K♦
It was a fair fight and one that Hassan needed to win as he was the at-risk player. The flop of 9♠4♠4♣ didn't bring any help to Novak, and neither did the Q♥ turn. A 6♠ on the river improved Hassan to a full house and saw him double up.
