The action was picked up on a flop of 3♣Q♠8♣. Mohanveer Bhasin bet 3,000 from the big blind and Kestutis Baranauskas called on the button.
Bhasin bet roughly 1,000, which was enough to put Baranauskas all-in , when the 3♠ hit the turn. Baranauskas called and the cards were flipped over.
Kestutis Baranauskas : A♣3♦
Mohanveer Bhasin : K♠J♠
Baranauskas had stuck around with bottom pair and was ahead but needed to fade a lot of outs on the rover to stay alive. The 9♥ river was clean for Baranauskas, and he doubled up.
