Matveychuk Wins a Big Flip

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante

A player opened from early position to 20,000 and Roman “EyeofSkadi” Matveychuk from one seat over and the player on the button both called. "Imyurfriend" jammed for 253,000 and the only player to call was Matveychuk who had slightly more chips.

"Imyurfriend": {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Roman “EyeofSkadi” Matveychuk: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

It was a coin flip to start but Matveychuk's tens held strong the entire way with the {3-Spades}{2-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{8-Spades} running out on the board.

Unlucky River for "luckyr1ver"

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,250 ante

"eltxupacabra" open jammed for 16 big blinds from the button with {q-Spades}{j-Hearts} and was called by "luckyr1ver" for a little bit more from the big blind with {4-Clubs}{4-Spades}.

It was looking good for "luckyr1ver" after nailing a set on the {10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{10-Hearts} flop. But the {6-Hearts} came on the turn followed by the {8-Hearts} on the river to give his or her opponent a flush. A short while later, "luckyr1ver" dusted off the rest of his or her stack.
