Verbitchii Misses the Flush as Bortsov's Kings Hold Strong
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
With approximately 16,000 already in the pot and the board displaying 6♥5♠A♥J♦3♣, Sergei Bortsov, acting first, checked. Nichita Verbitchii, sensing an opportunity, fired a bet of 8,000. Bortsov appeared to be deep in thought, visibly weighing his options and clearly not thrilled about the situation at hand. After a moment of contemplation, he ultimately decided to make the call, and the action moved to showdown.
Verbitchii revealed his hand, showing K♥Q♥ for a missed flush draw, while Bortsov confidently turned over K♣K♦. His pocket kings held strong, allowing him to scoop up the pot and add a nice boost to his chip stack.
