Three Bullets from Venovski

When we reached Table 368, the board read {8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Alex Venovski led out for 1,350, and his opponent called.

The turn was the {5-Clubs}, an Venovski led again - this time for 3,700. His opponent quickly called.

The {j-Spades} completed the board, and Venovski emptied the chamber, firing 9,500. His opponent tanked for nearly two minutes, then finally mucked his hand.
