Hunichen Hits the River to Triple Up
Level 38
: Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante
Marius Kudzmanas opened to 2,400,000 from under the gun. Chris Hunichen on the button three-bet all-in for 18,000,000 then Nikolay Bibov in the small blind jammed for 47,000,000. Akihiro Konishi in the big blind folded 5♥3♥ and Kudzmanas eventually called both stacks.
Chris Hunichen: Q♦J♠
Nikolay Bibov: A♣K♥
Marius Kudzmanas: A♦K♣
The dealer fanned a board of 7♣8♣2♥8♥ so Bibov and Kudzmanas were about to share Hunichen's stack. But the J♥ landed on the river to save "Big Huni" and allow him to triple up.
