Ostapenko Finds a Four to Survive Against Peretz
Level 13
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Mikhail Ostapenko opened the cutoff to 6,000 and then called off his stack of around 65,000 after Yaniv Peretz moved all in from the big blind.
Mikhail Ostapenko: A♣4♣ 
Yaniv Peretz: A♥K♦
It looked to be the end of the road for Ostapenko, but the 9♥4♠2♠ flop seemed to have other ideas as he paired his four to take the lead. No kings were in sight on the 7♥5♣ runout, and Ostapenko doubled up.
