Mistake Helps Sultanov Win a Hand
Mistakes can often be costly in poker. However, sometimes a mistake can lead to good fortune as well as was just the case for Viacheslav Sultanov on Table 11.
A player opened up for 3,500 before another opponent three-bet to 8,000. Sultanov thought he was calling a bet of 3,500 and tried to pull back his bet when he found out the bet was for 8,000.
As this is not allowed, Sultanov was forced to call for 8,000 and the early opener called behind.
The action was checked to the player that three-bet after the flop came 
and she jammed for around 25,000. Sultanov quickly called and the early opener exposed a 
and got out of the way.
Sultanov had 
and just needed to fade a pair of runners to win a big pot and eliminate his opponent. The check mark went Sultanov's way after the 
paired the board and the inconsequential 
completed the board on the river.
