Filatov Retakes the Lead With Rivered Flush
Filatov came into the final day as chip leader but lost some very early on to Pyzara. The partypoker Ambassador just got it back thanks to a rivered flush, and this time it was Pyzara's turn to ship over numerous towers of chips.
Pyzara min-raised the button to 200,000 and Filatov defended the big blind. The two players checked through the flop before Filatov fired 200,000 on the turn. Pyzara raised it up to 500,000 and Filatov called.
The river saw Filatov move all-in for 1,185,000 total and Pyzara went deep into the tank. When he finally resurfaced a few minutes later, it was to throw in a single chip to signal the call, and Filatov instantly turned over for the rivered flush. Pyzara's hit the muck seconds later, and Pyzara was left with less than two big blinds. He did manage to triple up in the very next hand and is now sitting on around half a million chips.
