Urbanovich Gets Saved by the River to Chop
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Limits: 10,000-35,000
On a flop of 7♥Q♥6♦, Dzmitry Urbanovich and Viktor Blom got all of their chips into the middle in a pot of over 1,000,000, with Urbanovich being the one at risk.
Dzmitry Urbanovich: A♥K♥10♥2♥
Viktor Blom: 7♦5♥4♥3♣
If Urbanovich were to lose this pot, the remaining 58 players would be in the money. The 7♠ on the turn propelled Blom into the lead with trip sevens and took away a lot of Urbanovich's outs. However, the 8♠ came on the river to give Urbanovich the best low, and the two chopped the pot.
