donpeters

Linas Leonovas raised to 30,000 in prelop action and David Saghabi reraised to 100,000. Leonovas was under the gun and Saghabi was in the hijack seat. Leonovas made the call and the two went heads-up to the flop.

The first three cards down on the felt were the {5-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} . Leonovas wasted little time in making his actions known and quickly shoved in for roughly 200,000, just about a pot-sized bet. Saghabi snapped him off holding {A-Clubs} {5-Hearts} . He would be the one at risk, but only barely.

Leonovas held two overs and a flush draw with the {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs} . Without a made hand, this was as good a spot for Leonovas to be in.

The turn brought the {A-Diamonds} and then the river the {3-Diamonds} . Without hitting any of his outs, Leonovas was left with just 15,000 chips.

A few moments later, Leonovas had the last of chips in from the big blind with {Q-} {4-} against Ernst Hermans' {K-Spades} {Q-} . The board ran out {J-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {J-Clubs} and that was all she wrote for Leonovas.
