Ryan Lashmar

Niveau 9 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Dmitry Yurasov opened to 5,500 from the cutoff and received calls from Mert Tozlu on the button and Cihan Abdurrezzak in the big blind.

The flop came 10♥8♣5♣ and action checked around to Yurasov who fired a 6,000 continuation bet. Abdurrezzak folded while Tozlu made the call.

Both remaining players checked the K♦ turn and K♥ river.

Yurasov tabled 6♥5♥ while Tozlu showed down A♦5♦ for a better five to take the pot.
