Budac Gets Instant Service to Double Through Zapsa
Level 37
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Tudor Zapsa opened to 1,000,000 from the cutoff and Stepan Budac called from the big blind.
On the 9♣5♠4♠ flop, Budac shoved for 2,500,000 and Zapsa called.
Stepan Budac: 7♣6♦ 
Tudor Zapsa: A♣K♣
Budac flopped an open-ender and decided to run it, which worked out in his favor as the 8♦ turn gave him an unbeatable straight. An A♦ on the river was a little needle for Zapsa, who had to cough up the chips over to his tablemate.
