Sabishchenko Dominates with Back-to-Back Big Pots
In the first hand, Rostyslav Sabishchenko took control, raising to 120,000 from the button and receiving a call from Klaus Buelow in the big blind.
The flop came down 7♠3♥2♥, and Buelow check-called Sabishchenko’s continuation bet of 120,000.
On the 6♣ turn, Buelow repeated the same move, check-calling a larger bet of 330,000 from Sabishchenko.
However, when the Q♦ river appeared, Buelow checked again, and this time Sabishchenko went all in. Unwilling to risk his tournament life, Buelow folded.
In the very next hand, Sabishchenko kept up the pressure, raising once again to 120,000 from the cutoff. This time, Lishai Heshbon, sitting in the big blind, called.
Unlike the previous hand, Heshbon took the initiative on the 4♦9♠3♦ flop, leading out with a bet of 130,000, which Sabishchenko called.
The action continued on the 7♠ turn, where Heshbon fired another bet of 230,000, and Sabishchenko once again called.
With the river showing A♦, both players hesitated, checking the potential flush threat, and the hand went to showdown. Sabishchenko revealed J♥J♦, which proved strong enough as Heshbon quickly mucked his cards, leaving Sabishchenko to scoop the pot.
