Novak Sniffs Out Razinkov's Bluff

Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Ibrahim Ghassan raised to 12,000 from early position before Aleksandr Razinkov three-bet to 32,000 from the cutoff. Andrii Novak called from the button, and Ghasson stuck in the call also.
Three players went to a flop of 7?10?8?, where action checked to Novak, who bet 35,000. Ghassan folded, but Razinkov called to see the turn.
The 9? turn checked through for the 3? to land on the river. Razinkov took back the betting lead by firing out for 55,000. Novak pondered briefly then stuck in the call.
Razinkov just had a pair of nines with Q?9? on the four flush board. Novak could beat that with 6?6? for a straight.
