Ushakov's Full House Overpowers Alt
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Dinesh Alt got things rolling with a raise to 1,000 from early position. Hakan Pamukcu, sitting in middle position, responded with a three-bet to 2,500. Evgenii Ushakov in the small blind and Alt both called.
The flop came down 10?A?10?, and after both players checked, Pamukcu took the lead with a bet of 2,000, which both Alt and Ushakov matched.
Ushakov seized the initiative on the 3? turn, betting 2,000. Again, both Alt and Pamukcu called.
When the 5? hit the river, Ushakov fired another bet of 4,000, which only Alt called. At showdown, Ushakov revealed A?10? for a flopped full house, easily besting Alt's hand, which quickly found its way to the muck.
