Savevski Scoops Massive Pot to Eliminate Fournier; Wins Another Right After
Samuel Fournier opened 100,000 in the cutoff, and Ilija Savevski called on the button before Alin Grasu defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of 7?6?3?, and once checked to Fournier continued for 115,000. Savevski raised to 375,000 and only Fournier made the call.
The 5? hit the turn, and Fournier check-called a bet of 675,000.
When the 3? completed the board, Fournier checked to Savevski who pushed a bet of 2,000,000 across the line. Fournier tanked before deciding to rip his entire stack of 3,175,000 into the middle, and Savevski called.
Fournier turned over 7?5? for two pair, but was shown the bad news as Savevski tabled 6?6? for a full house.
Almost immediately after, Savevski won another pot of about 1,300,000 with pocket kings against David Kaufmann on a 9?5?6?7?5? board.
