Turn Saves Lykov

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Jaosn Mercier opened to 40,000 from under the gun and Max Lykov defended his big blind. The flop came down {7-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Lykov led for 52,000. Mercier called.

The dealer burned and turned the {10-Hearts}. Lykov led for 111,000 and Mercier again called.

The {5-Diamonds} rivered and Lykov led for a third time. The bet was 217,000 this time and Mercier called for a third time.

Lykov opened {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts} for a jack-high straight and Mercier opened {j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} for the same hand. Mercier flopped the straight whereas Lykov got there on the turn, but regardless the two chopped the pot.
