Lucky Split to Save Toth
Level 30
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
After Ermanno Di Nicola opened to 200,000 from middle position, Istvan Toth to his left three-bet all in for 840,000. In the small blind, Radek Panoch asked for the count and four-bet shoved with a bigger stack. Di Nicola quickly folded.
Istvan Toth: A♥10♦
Radek Panoch: A♠Q♠
Toth had a flush draw on the flop K♦9♦A♦, but was still on the edge of elimination after the turn 9♠. However, he was lucky enough to hit the 9♥ on the river, which gave both players a full house, resulting in a split pot.
