Freedlander Hits Quads on Zlotnikov
Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
On a heads-up flop of J♠7♣6♠, all the chips got into the middle between Dean Freedlander and Anatoliy Zlotnikov, with Freedlander at risk of elimination.
Dean Freedlander: K♥J♣J♦7♦
Anatoliy Zlotnikov: 9♠8♦7♠3♥
Freedlander had the lead with his top set of jacks, but he had a lot to dodge as Zlotnikov had a straight and flush combo draw.
And just like that, the turn A♠ gave Zlotnikov the lead with a flush, but the hand wasn't over yet as the river came the J♥ to give Freedlander quads to take the pot in dramatic fashion.
