Petrov Fills Up

Level 7 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

With two players seeing a board of QQJ2 and roughly 16,000 already in the middle, Aleksei Petrov bet 4,000 from middle position and was called by Tinay Aksoy in the cutoff.

On the 2 river Aksoy moved all in for roughly 40,000 and Petrov nearly beat him into the pot.

Aksoy turned over A3 for an ace-high flush but Petrov showed down KQ for a full house to score the knockout and continue to extend his lead over the rest of the field.
