Hot Start for Yurasov

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Dmitry Yurasov opened to 6,000 from under the gun and received calls from Safi Haidar in the hijack and Ihar Soika in the big blind.

The flop came K72. Soika checked, Yurasov fired a 6,000 cointinuation bet, Haidar called and Soika folded.

Yurasov bet again for 17,000 on the 3 turn and was once again called by Haidar.

On the Q river Yurasov bet 40,000. Haidar thought for about one minute before sticking in a call. Haidar had flopped top pair with KJ but Yurasov showed down QQ for a set on the river to take down a nice early pot.
