Savenkov Takes From Pichierri
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Aleksei Savenkov had defended from the big blind to an Alessandro Pichierri open from the hijack. The two players saw the dealer fan out a flop of 6♠5♦5♣, and Savenkov check-called a bet of 3,500 from Pichierri.
Both players checked the Q♦ turn for the A♣ to come on the river. Savenkov bet 2,000 and Pichierri reluctantly called.
Savenkov turned over K♠Q♠ for a pair of queens on the turn and Pichierri mucked his cards.
