Ustimov Doubles Through Moraes
Level 8
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Viktor Ustimov opened the hijack to 16,000 before Rafael Moraes three-bet to 48,000 from the button. With the action back on Ustimov, he elected to jam for 215,000 and Moraes quickly called as the covering stack.
Viktor Ustimov: 5♥5♣ 
Rafael Moraes: A♣K♠
It was a cooinflip scenario with Ustimov staying in front on the Q♠7♦6♠ flop. The 6♥ turn brought some counterfeit outs for Moraes, but the 4♠ completed the board as Ustimov's fives held on for a massive double.
Moraes was left with crumbs and was eliminated the following hand.
