Markov Wins a Big Flip
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Anton Markov raised from the cutoff, Akinobu Maeda three-bet to 7,000 from the small blind and Xiaohua Fu, in the big blind, cold four-bet to 24,100. Markov moved all in for 24,100, Maeda folded and Fu called.
Anton Markov: Q♣Q♠ 
Xiaohua Fu: A♠K♠
Markov was ahead and the 8♦9♣5♠ flop was a safe one. The 6♣ turn changed nothing and the 3♦ river confirmed Markov's double up.
