The board ran out and Istomin turned the nut straight to bust Speranza.
In the last hand of the level, Gordon Huntly and Fraser MacIntyre saw the turn and Huntly bet 21,000 in the small blind. MacIntyre called from early position and did so again for 35,000 on the river. Huntly showed for top two, but MacIntyre had that beat with for a turned set.
"That's not good for the Scottish relationship," MacIntyre joked to his fellow countryman.
