Kuznetsov Pulls Clear

Level 45 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 0 ante

Holding J10, Nikita Kuznetsov opened to 40,000 on the button before calling a three-bet to 160,000 by Henri Puustinen in the big blind, who had 107.

The action checked through on both the 78Q flop and the 3 turn, and the 9 completed the board.

Puustinen picked his betting lead back up, putting 110,000 into the middle, which was met by a chunky raise to 595,000 from Kuznetsov, who had rivered the nuts. Puustinen gave it some thought but ultimately chose to correctly fold.
