Rizov Goes From Last to First on the River to Take Massive Pot
Level 5
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Around 70,000 was already in the pot as three players went to the turn on a board of K?7?4?6?. Hussein Ramlawi then bet 51,000 from the small blind and Alexander Savchenko moved all in for 86,000 in the hijack.
Miroslav Rizov called on the button, as did Ramlawi. The river was the 5? and both Ramlawi and Rizov checked.
Savchenko showed K?J? for top pair, while Ramlawi had A?A?. Rizov, though, turned over 7?5? for a rivered two pair as he took the pot, sending Savchenko to the rail.
"What are you doing?" Ramlawi said as he surrendered the massive pot.
"Nice hand. Very well played," he eventually told Rizov.
