"That's How You Win the Tournament"; Viacheslav Knocks Out Two

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
Viacheslav Zhukov
Viacheslav Zhukov

The player under the gun limped and Viacheslav Zhukov raised to 5,000 in the cutoff. Jon Turner raised the pot from the big blind and the initial limper moved all in for 30,800. Zhukov got a count and looked at both of his opponents' stacks. They were around the same amount.

Then he announced, "I'm not the favorite," and put forward a stack of pink chips to put Turner in. Turner called and was all in for 32,200 total. Zhukov had both his opponents at risk.

Zhukov: {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Turner: {A-Hearts}{K-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Hearts}
Under the gun player: {A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}

When they turned over their hands, tablemate Scott Bohlman said, "That's how you win the tournament," referring to Zhukov's two WSOP bracelets.

The board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{5-Spades} {Q-Clubs} {2-Spades}. With no low available, Zhukov scooped the whole pot with two pair, queens and fives, eliminating Turner and the other all-in player in the process.

"That's how you win the tournament," Bohlman repeated as Zhukov stacked the chips.
