Tsyhryk Leaves it Late to Stack Jobst
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Maksym Tsyhryk opened to 40,000 from middle position and Benno Jobst three-bet the cutoff to 110,000, playing a stack of around 300,000. When the action got back to Tsyhryk, he ripped in his stack of around 350,000, and Jobst took some time before he called, leaving him at risk.
Benno Jobst: 9♠9♣ 
Maksym Tsyhryk: A♥Q♣
It was a classic flip, and one that Jobst would have felt more confident about after seeing the 4♦6♥8♦ flop. A J♠ on the turn would have boosted those confidence levels a little more, but the Q♥ on the river was a dagger in the heart as Tsyhryk paired his queen, ending the run of Jobst.
