Eduards Kudrjavcevs opened to 20,000 in middle position and was called by Leon Tsoukernik on the button and the small blind. Michael Sklenicka three-bet to 125,000 from the big blind and all three players called.
"If I hit something, I'm going all in," Tsoukernik exclaimed with only 227,000 behind. The flop fell ![{7-Diamonds}](/img/cards/7d.gif?1)
![{5-Spades}](/img/cards/5s.gif?1)
and the action checked to Tsoukernik who kept his word and moved all in. The small blind folded and Sklenick also quickly shoved all in for 919,000. Kudrjavcevs asked for a count and then called after a minute.
Leon Tsoukernik: ![{4-Hearts}](/img/cards/4h.gif?1)
![{3-Hearts}](/img/cards/3h.gif?1)
Eduards Kudrjavcevs: ![{q-Spades}](/img/cards/qs.gif?1)
![{q-Diamonds}](/img/cards/qd.gif?1)
Michael Sklenicka: ![{8-Clubs}](/img/cards/8c.gif?1)
![{8-Diamonds}](/img/cards/8d.gif?1)
"I've already won! Ship it here!" Tsoukernik shouted, still needing to complete his straight to have a hope. The dealer burned and turned the
and Tsoukernik did indeed make a straight. The
on the river changed nothing and Tsoukernik scored himself a full triple up.
Kudrjavcevs, meanwhile, took down the larger side pot and Sklenicka was eliminated.
