Zhukov Increases His Lead

Roch Cousineau opened the action to 135,000 from the button. Viacheslav Zhukov called in the big blind and the dealer spread out a {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{q-Clubs} flop. Both players checked here and the dealer flipped over a {6-Hearts} on the turn. Zhukov check-called a bet of 135,000 here and then check-called a bet of 240,000 on the {7-Hearts} river. Here is how the cards looked at showdown.

Zhukov: {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Cousineau: {a-Clubs}{q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{5-Spades}

Cousineau held trip queens, while Zhukov had the nut flush to scoop up the pot and see him take a chip lead of more than three to one.
