Fortunate Runout Saves Niste From a Dangerous Flop
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Heads-up on a board of 4?J?K?10?, Rachid El Yaacoubi bet 8,500 from middle position before Mihai Niste raised to 22,000 on the button.
El Yaacoubi called to see the A? river and checked. Niste checked back and El Yaacoubi turned over 4?4? for a flopped set.
Niste flashed K?J? for two pair on the flop as he surrendered what could've been a much larger pot.
