Verkhoturov Cements Top Spot
Level 11
: 1,000/2,500, 0 ante
Robert Cowen opened to 7,000 and Ivan Levchenko called, as did Calogero Lupo in the cutoff. Sergei Verkhoturov three-bet the pot to 38,000 and Lupo was the only caller.
On a 
flop, Lupo check-called a bet worth 40,000 and quickly did so again for 55,000 on the 
turn. The 
came on the river and Lupo checked once more. Verkhoturov bet 150,000 and Lupo called all in for fewer than that.
Verkhoturov turned over 
for a full house and Lupo mucked 
.
