Ivanov Hits the Rail
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
A player in middle position opened to 1,500, Christophe Pommier, in the hijack, three-bet to 4,500 and Sylvester Fortuna, in the cutoff, cold-called. Lyudmil Ivanov, in the big blind, four-bet jammed for 19,600. The original raiser folded, as did Pommier. Fortuna called.
Lyudmil Ivanov: A♠K♣ 
Sylvester Fortuna: 8♣8♠
Fortuna was ahead and the 4♠4♣10♥ flop saw him hold. The Q♦ turn gave Ivanov additional outs to a straight, but the 9♦ river saw him sent to the rail.
