Matt Warburton

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

Oleg Ustinovich raised to 40,000 from middle position and Julien Sitbon called in the big blind.

The flop came Q♣Q♦Q♠. Sitbon checked to the raiser and Ustinovich bet 35,000, which Sitbon called.

The turn was the 7♥. Sitbon checked again and Ustinovich pushed over a stack of blues worth 110,000. Sitbon once again made the call.

The river was the 6♥ and both players checked to showdown. Sitbon showed A♦7♣ for a full house, queens full of sevens. Ustinovich turned over 8♠8♣ for a higher full house, queens full of eights. He took the pot and left a dent in Sitbon's stack.
