Birgaoanu Hits the Turn, Asipauskas Spikes the River to Double
Level 6
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 9♦J♠2♦, Rokas Asipauskas got his last 29,000 in the middle from the small blind and Andrei Birgaoanu put him at risk in middle position.
Rokas Asipauskas: 2♥2♣ 
Andrei Birgaoanu: 10♦8♦
Asipauskas was ahead with a set of deuces, but Birgaoanu had both straight and flush draws as the Q♠ turn completed his straight. The river, though, was the 9♥ and Asipauskas improved to a full house to earn the double up.
