Pateychuk Spikes River to Claim Double Knockout
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Bruno Sanzoni moved all in from the cutoff for 117,000, and Andrey Pateychuk rejammed from the small blind. Oleg Ustinovich was in the big blind, playing around 210,000, and he also moved his chips into the middle.
Bruno Sanzoni: A♠7♦ 
Oleg Ustinovich: A♣Q♣
Andrey Pateychuk: A♥9♣
Ustinovich was in great shape with the dominating ace, and he improved to top pair on the Q♥10♦3♥ flop.
The 8♥ turn had Sanzoni up out of his chair, but brought danger for Ustinovich as Pateychuk now held the nut flush draw.
Sure enough, the 7♥ rolled off on the river, sending a chunky pot to Pateychuk and sending both of his opponents to the rail.
Pateychuk started the day with just 95,000 and seems to have been on a roll in Day 2 so far.
