Gurin Fades All the Outs to Double Up
Level 11
: 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Early position begins this hand raising to 4,500, letting a couple players get out of the way before a caller joins the fray. Late position raises 15,000, which allowed Sergei Gurin to four bet to 31,000. With the last player getting out of the way, the original better raised to 80,000 putting Gurin at risk of losing his tournament life. Eventually, he made the call flipping over A♥Q♠ versus the opponents K♣Q♣.
However, the flop of 10♣4♣J♥, put Gurin as the hands underdog going into the turn. Fortunately for him, the turn came the K♠ giving him the nut straight. The river was also a brick as the 2♠ peeled off to double Gurin up. With this pot won, Gurin garnered a stack of 134,500.
