Jeff Lisandro raised to 52,000 from early position and Ruben Sahnazarov defended his big blind. The flop came {7-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and Sahnazarov checked to Lisandro.

Lisandro continued for 52,000 and Sahnazarov check-raised to 200,000. Lisandro called.

The turn was the {6-Hearts} and both players checked.

The river was the {3-Clubs} and Sahnazarov moved all in for 260,000. Lisandro quickly called. Sahnazarov tabled {9-Spades}{3-Spades} for two-pair, but Lisandro had turned a straight flush with {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and that was good enough to eliminate his opponent.

"I gave him time to find something," said Lisandro as he added his opponent's chips to his stack, "On the river he found something! Don't rush players, give them time!"
