Kostritsyn Hangs Tough

Limit Hold'em

Alexander Kostritsyn had found a much needed double up during Limit Hold'em against David Oppenheim. In a preflop raising war, Kostritsyn's last 254,000 chips went into the middle.

Kostritsyn: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Oppenheim: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

The race was on, but Kostritsyn spiked a pair and turned a flush on the {Q-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} board. Kostritsyn has his head above water once again with over 500,000 chips.
