Level 18
: 6,000/12,000, 0 ante
Action folded to Aleksey Filatov in the hijack and he raised to 25,000. The player in the big blind was the only caller.
The flop came 
and the big blind slid a stack forward to make a pot-sized bet of 56,000. Filatov raised to put the big blind to a decision for the remainder of his stack and he called to put himself at risk.
Aleksey Filatov: 
Big blind: 
Filatov found himself behind the big blind's two pair and needed help from the deck to win the pot. He picked up some additional outs on the 
turn and caught up when he made trips on the 
river, so he took the pot to send his opponent to the cage. This pot put Filatov's stack over the half-million chip mark.
