Skripkin Puts in the Big River Check-Raise

Damir Gabdullin opened under the gun to 5,000 before it folded all the way to Maksim Skripkin who defended his big blind.

The A♥J♣Q♥ flop hit the felt and Skripkin check-called a 5,000 continuation bet from Gabdullin on their way to a J♥ turn.

The action checked through on the turn and 9♣ rolled off on the river.

Skripkin checked it over to Gabdullin who went big with a wager of 17,000. Skripkin leaned over to see what Gabdullin had left behind and then promptly check-raised all in having Gabdullin covered.

Gabdullin went into the tank for a few moments but eventually he put in the chips. Skripkin tabled 2♥3♥ for a turned flush and Gabdullin tabled K♦J♦ for turned trips.

Gabdullin hit the rail but all is not lost as late registration is still open.
