Chivukula Hits the River to Double

Level 17 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Venkat Chivukula on the button limped and called after Youness Barakat in the small blind raised to 160,000.

Barakat continued for 400,000 on the 7♣10♦2♦ and was called, then fired a second barrel on the 9♥ turn. Chivukula, whose remaining 305,000 chips were covered by Barakat’s bet, spent more than two minutes in the tank before eventually making the call.

Venkat Chivukula: Q♦J♥10♥3♦ All in
Youness Barakat: Q♠Q♣8♦7♥

The 5♦ river gave Chivukula a flush, allowing him to win the coin flip and double up.
