Ustimov Shoves River and Wins Big Pot
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Jon Vallinas Santos raised to 3,500 from middle position, Felipe Fontoura Ketzer called in late position, and Viktor Ustimov called in the big blind.
The flop came 8?3?3? and Ustimov checked. Santos continued with a bet of 3,000 and Ketzer called. Ustimov then check-raised to 11,500 and only Santos called.
The turn was the 4? and Ustimov sized up to 28,000, a bet which Santos called. The river came the Q? and Ustimov shoved all in.
Santos got the count and was covered. He used a time bank and decided to fold, giving Ustimov a significant pot that increased his chip count to over twice the starting stack.
