Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Andrei Konopelko opened to 2,500 from the cutoff and Nichita Verbitchii defended his big blind.
The K♦8♠5♣ flop was checked through. On the J♣ turn, Verbitchii check-raised to 11,000 versus a bet of 3,000 from his opponent. Konopelko made the quick call.
The 6♥ river was checked through. Verbitchii turned over Q♣9♦ for queen-high, having missed his turned gutshot, and Konopelko took the pot with Q♦Q♥.
