Kuznetsov Hits the River on Sammer; Hallaert Kicks Into TD Mode
Nikita Kuznetsov raised to 50,000 on the button and Harald Sammer defended his big blind.
The flop came 9♠9♦6♣ and Kuznetsov continued for 25,000. Sammer then raised to 75,000 and Kuznetsov asked how much he had behind.
Sammer moved his chips forward to give Kuznetsov a clear look. "Three eighty," tablemate Victor Yugay said. Kenny Hallaert, a tournament director and a poker pro, reminded Yugay he shouldn't answer for Sammer.
Kuznetsov called to the Q♦ turn, where Sammer checked and Kuznetsov bet 65,000. Sammer called and the A♦ fell on the river.
Sammer checked again and Kuznetsov picked up the dealer button and slammed it on the table, checking behind. Sammer flashed a queen, but Kuznetsov had A♠6♠ for a better two pair on the river to win the pot.
