Ushakov Makes a Straight
Level 11
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
With 76,000 in the middle, the flop read 10?8?6?, and Evgenii Ushakov checked to his opponent who fired a bet of 33,000. Ushakov quickly called.
When the 5? hit the turn, Ushakov checked once again and his opponent stacked up a pile of chips and pushed them across the line. Ushakov announced a call before the dealer could even finish counting the stack of 76,000.
The 7? landed on the river, and both players checked. Ushakov tabled 10?9?, flopping top pair and improving to a straight. His opponent mucked his hand as the dealer pushed the pot toward him.
