On Fire

Bobby Firestone raised to 250,000 from the button and found a caller from Vitaly Lunkin.

The flop came {4-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {5-Clubs}

Lunkin check to Firestone who bet 300,000 before raising it up to 800,000. Firestone was not put off and made the call.

They both checked the {10-Diamonds} turn, seemingly wary of the damage they could do to each other.

The river came {5-Hearts}. Lunkin checked to Firestone who fired out a 700,000 bet. Lunkin didn't seem to like the paired board or the third heart and folded, sending the big pot and the chip lead the way of Firestone.
