: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Alexander Ziskin raised to 80,000 from the cutoff and Kevin MacDonald three-bet shoved from the button for 555,000. The blinds got out of the way and Ziskin called to put MacDonald at risk.
Ziskin: 
MacDonald: 
Ziskin had the preflop advantage and MacDonald had to improve in order to survive. He paired his five on the 
flop to take the lead and further improved to trips on the 
turn, leaving Ziskin in rough shape. The 
on the river paired Ziskin's queen, but it wasn't enough, and MacDonald took the pot to double up.
