Savenkov Stuns Sare
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Most of Aleksei Savenkov's chips had gone in preflop when he committed the final 14,000 on a flop of 4♠3♦J♦ against Christian Sare in the big blind.
Aleksei Savenkov: A♣J♠ 
Christian Sare: A♠K♦
Savenkov had been behind preflop but flopped best to take a significant lead. The 10♥ turn brought Sare a gutshot, but the 7♠ river remained safe for Savenkov to double up.
