Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante

Michael Pesek was first up from the under-the-gun position. He raised to 120,000. Anton Ionel called from the small blind and Dmitriy Stelmak called from the big blind.

The three players saw the flop come down {10-Spades} {6-Spades} {3-Spades} and action checked to Pesek. He bet out 130,000. Ionel check-raised to 285,000 and Stelmak folded. Pesek reraised all in for 1.38 million more and Ionel called.

Ionel: {A-Spades} {9-Clubs}
Pesek: {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}

Pesek would need to fade Ionel's flush draw and one overcard in order to double up. The turn brought the {4-Clubs} and the river the {2-Clubs} . Both were black, but not spades. Pesek doubled and is up to about 3.3 million. Ionel dropped back to two million.
