Level 31
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Daniil Kiselev raised to 300,000 on the button, and Maher Achour three-bet to 2,700,000 from the small blind, leaving just 50,000 behind. Kiselev moved all in, and Achour flicked in his last 50,000.
Maher Achour: K♥J♣
Daniil Kiselev: 4♥4♦
Achour got out of his chair with his tournament life on the line. The flop came 10♦6♠6♦, giving him some counterfeit outs. The 5♣ turn added a few more, and the K♠ river delivered the winner—top pair for Achour to score a crucial double-up.
