Zinnatullin Doubles Through Austin
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
It was a battle of the blinds as Lance Austin began the action with a limp from the small blind before Marat Zinnatullin chose to raise to 20,000 from the big blind. Austin called to send them to a flop.
Austin checked the 2♣10♥J♥ flop, which led to a bet of 20,000 from Zinnatullin. Austin chose to check-raise to 100,000, which was enough to put Zinnatullin all-in. Zinnatullin wasted little time putting in the call for 86,000 to be at risk as they went to a showdown.
Marat Zinnatullin: K♥J♠
Lance Austin: Q♥10♠
Zinnatullin held when the 5♥ turn and the 7♥ river peeled off to give both players a flush.
