Lunkin Quadruples

Level 3 : 50/100, 0 ante

Vitaly Lunkin, winner of the $40,000 No-Limit Hold'em event back in 2009, just quadrupled up. The cutoff opened to 225 and the button three bet to 500. From the small blind Lunkin pushed allin and the big blind folded. The cutoff made the call and a side-pot came into existence.

{Q-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds} on the flop and the cutoff check-folded to a 450 bet by the button, who thus grabbed the main pot. The button showed {A-Hearts}{9-Spades} but was behind Lunkin's {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. The {5-Spades} on the turn and {6-Diamonds} on the river didn't improve the button's hand and Lunkin now has 550 to play with again.
