Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Roman Stoika opened to 6,000 under the gun. Yernur Kurbanov called in the hijack, Shukhrat Fayziev did so on the button, and Eliyahu Elyashiv defended his big blind.
It checked to Kurbanov on the 9♣7♣4♦ flop. He bet 15,000, seeing Fayziev and Elayshiv call before Stoika folded.
Kurbanov sized up to 55,000 on the Q♦ turn. Again, both opponents called, and the 2♥ river subsequently completed the board.
Kurbanov completed his triple barrel with a bet of 50,000. Fayziev still called, but Elyashiv folded and left himself just over five big blinds.
Kurbanov tabled 4♠4♣ for a set, winning the sizable pot when Fayziev mucked his cards and was left with just two big blinds.
