Level 6
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
![Samuel Dray](https://s.pnimg.net/jscZ24Abi0BFUshRrSkM9m-YFbTwfzVc1gc0En-N2KQ/pr:reporting-leading-desktop/aHR0cHM6Ly9wbmlt/Zy5uZXQvbHJlcC8y/MTQzLzYyL3gyYzhj/YzIzNjY5LnBuZw.webp)
Vladimir Alekseev opened from under the gun and Samuel Dray three-bet to 8,000 from middle position. Fabio Peluso called from the hijack before Alekseev four-bet shoved for 26,900. Both Dray and Peluso made the call.
The flop came K♦J♥8♥ and both Dray and Peluso checked, leading to the 6♣ turn. Dray bet 16,000 and Peluso snap-folded, leaving Alekseev at risk versus Dray.
Vladimir Alekseev: J♦10♦
Samuel Dray: K♥K♠
Dray was a massive favorite with top set while Alekseev could only hit running quads, a running straight or a running flush to survive. The A♠ river was of no help to Alekseev and he made his exit from the tournament area while Dray scooped the pot.
