Vlad Mezheritsky

There was a late position raise to 6,000. Chip leader Ramon Miguel called from the button as did the small blind and Vlad Mezheritsky in the big blind. They were four handed to the flop.

Flop: KhTh8h

The small blind checked and Mezheritsky shoved 26,500 chips. The late-position raiser folded and Miguel called. The small blind folded and Mezheritsky was at risk holding Ks8c for two pair. The good fortune continued to Miquel as he owned AhQh — the nut flush.

The turn fell hard — the 8s — giving Mezheritsky a fullhouse. Miquel had outs to the royal, but the river Ac wasn’t one of them. Ultimately it was an inconsequential pot for Miguel who still owned 370,000 chips after shipping the double to Mezheritsky. Mezheritsky’s stack grew to 75,000.
