Zelenkin Leaves Savenkov with Crumbs after Brutal Cooler
Level 24
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Denis Zelenkin opened, Alexey Savenkov three-bet and Denis Zelenkin four-bet shoved for just under 8,000,000. Savenkov, who covered Zelenkin, made the call.
Denis Zelenkin: A♣4♣ 
Alexey Savenkov: AxKx
Zelenkin was in big trouble after being caught with a smaller ace but he 6♣9♣5♣ flop gave him the nut-flush leaving his opponent drawing dead. The 3♣ turn and 4♥ river were a mere formality after which Zelenkin dragged in a pot worth nearly three times the chip average while Savenkov was left with roughly ten big blinds.
