Diamonds are Abelmasov's Best Friend
Level 3
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Igor Abelmasov just hit a dreamy river card to eliminate Aleksandar Tot.
There were already around 40,000 chips in the pot on a 5♠8♣Q♦ flop when Abelmasov bet 14,000 from under the gun. Tot called from the cutoff and the 5♦ hit the turn.
After eyeing up his opponent's stack, Abelmasov bet 100,000, and Tot took just a few seconds before he called for his remaining stack of around 70,000.
Aleksandar Tot: A♠A♣
Igor Abelmasov: A♦6♦
Tot was in a great spot to double up, needing only to fade a diamond on the river to secure the chunky pot. However, diamonds were Abelmasov's best friend today as the J♦ fell on the river, completing his flush and eliminating Tot.
