A Sincere Celebration; Zekster Takes It on the Chin
Level 34
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Heads up to a turn of 10♣6♥3♣3♦, Paul Sincere checked and Igor Zektser bet 500,000. Sincere responded with a raise to 1,700,000.
After a short deliberations, Zektser raised enough to put his opponent's remaining chips at risk. Sincere called.
Paul Sincere: Q♥6♦5♣4♣3♠
Igor Zektser: K♥J♦J♣10♠3♥
Zektser was looking poised to scoop with his turned boat against the trip threes and low draw of Sincere.
"High card! Not a queen..." Zektser said as the Q♠ rolled off the deck, giving Sincere a better board.
"Let's go!!" Sincere shouted, as he was already out of his seat and doing a lap to celebrate with his rail.
