Level 15
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Stepan Mikhno opened 11,000 on the hijack and Kartik Ved three-bet to 34,000. Mikhno asked to see how much Ved was playing behind before raising to commit his opponent. Ved quickly put the rest of it in and when Mikhno called, they turned their cards face up.
Kartik Ved: 
Stepan Mikhno: 
Mikhno was looking for an ace but the flop fell a low 
. The 
turn gave both players a flush draw but Ved's was the higher, leaving Mikhno with just two aces to hit. It was a 
brick for Ved who has moved up the rankings.
