Sanioglu Doubles Through Ustinovich with Top Pair
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Oleg Ustinovich opened the action from middle position with a raise to 800, drawing in three callers.
On the 3♠10♠9♣ flop, both blinds checked, leaving Ustinovich to fire out another bet of 1,100. Only Sanioglu, seated in the cutoff, stuck around with a call.
When the A♣ hit the turn, Ustinovich kept the pressure on with a bet of 5,000, but Sanioglu responded by shoving all in for 17,800. After taking a moment to check his cards, Ustinovich called.
Sanioglu revealed A♠K♣ for top pair, while Ustinovich showed J♣8♣, holding a straight and flush draw. However, the river 2♠ didn’t connect for Ustinovich, allowing Sanioglu to double up.
