Unlikely Triple For Denis Pavlenko

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Denis Pavlenko was short stacked with 35,000 and moved all in under the gun.

Action folded to Pavel Kovalenko in the small blind who called. Yehor Filipenko then moved all in from the big blind and with a flash of irritation Kovalenko folded.

Pavlenko had {q-Spades}{10-Hearts} and stood up as Filipenko tabled {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}.

The board ran out {k-Hearts}{5-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

Never mind the set of Queens on the flop, Pavlenko scored a straight on the river to double up to the bewilderment of the table but his delight as he took a photo and sat back down.
