Tsinis Takes First Blood

Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Arkadiy Tsinis has just won the first five hands of this heads-up battle against Michael Lanovsky to further extend his chip lead.

After Tsinis stole the first three sets of blinds and antes, Lanovsky surrended the button before the first board of the heads-up battle played out. Tsinis raised to 120,000 from the button and Lanovsky called before checking his option on the flop of {Q-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{Q-Spades}.

Tsinis bet 120,000 again, but Lanovsky then check-raised to 365,000. Tsinis called, then Lanovsky checked again on the turn of the {6-Hearts}. Tsinis fired out 360,000 and Lanovsky mucked his hand.
