Dmitrii Kuzin opened to 5,500 and received a call from a player on the button before Traian Stanciu three-bet to 30,000 from the big blind. Kuzin put in a four-bet to 60,500, forcing the button out of the pot while Stanciu made the call.
The flop came K♣6♦2♠ and Stanciu check-called a 15,000 continuation bet from Kuzin.
Stanciu check-called another bet from Kuzin on the 5♥ turn, this time for 40,000.
On the Q♠ river Stanciu checked once more and Kuzin bet 120,000. Stanciu thought for about one minute before making the call. Kuzin immediately mucked and Stanciu collected a massive pot without having to show the winning hand.
