Gerasimova Gets There on Wrong End of Super Cooler
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
A player under the gun opened to 1,200 and was then three-bet by a player in late position to 10,000.
From the big blind, Lika Gerasimova then made it 25,000 to go with a cold four-bet.
The original raiser folded, but the late position player five-bet jammed for 46,000 and Gerasimova called.
Late Position Player: 
Lika Gerasimova: 
Gerasimova was on the wrong end of the classic preflop cooler and was still behind after the 
flop.
The 
on the turn however changed everything, now leaving her opponent dead to two outs, neither of which came on the 
river, sending a huge pot to Gerasimova.

Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Following a raise to 1,200 from the cutoff, Tyler Patterson three-bet to 3,500 on the button. Both the small and big blinds called, as did the original raiser and the quartet were off to a flop of

Action was checked to Patterson who bet 3,000. Both blinds folded, but the cutoff called.
On the 
turn, action was checked and the

Again the players checked, and the cutoff showed 
for two pair, but Patterson rolled over 
for a better two pair to take down the pot.

A Gift for Ostapchenko
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
A player in early position raised to 1,000 and was called by Andrew Ostapchenko on the button.
The flop came 
and the original raiser bet 1,000. Ostapchnko clicked it back to 2,000, and the original raised piled his chips up and moved all in for 17,300. Ostapchenko happily called.
Under the Gun:
Andrew Ostapchenko: 
Ostapchenko's top and bottom pair had picked off his opponent's blast off with ace-king high.
The 
runout sealed the hand for Ostapchenko who finished third in a WPT Deepstacks event here last December for over $110,000.
