Fal is a Survival Expert
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Mikhail Zavoloka and Nikolay Fal are really going at it!
Zavoloka raised under the gun to 160,000 and Fal defended his big blind.
On the 9♠10♣7♣ flop, Fal checked and Zavoloka bet 250,000. Fal then shoved 835,000, and Zavoloka snap-called.
Nikolay Fal: K♦8♥
Mikhail Zavoloka: J♠J♣
Fal had an open-ender, but two of his outs were blocked blocked by Zavoloka's pocket jacks. A Q♥ on the turn removed his three king outs as that would give Zavoloka a straight, but amazingly the J♥ fell on the river, completing Fal's straight.
