Premovic Gets Some Luck of His Own
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Nikolai Isaev raised to 100,000 in the hijack before Predrag Premovic shoved the cutoff for 910,000. Once the rest of the players folded, Isaev stuck in the call.
Predrag Premovic: A♦J♦ 
Nikolai Isaev: A♥K♥
Isaev's big slick was far ahead of Premovic's ace-jack, and Isaev stayed in the lead through the Q♣4♦2♣ flop.
However, lady luck helped Premovic on the turn as the J♥ rolled off to propel him into the lead with a pair. The 8♣ river was a blank and Premovic was back up to 2,000,000.
