Miracle River for Kostritsyn

Level 5 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Peter Jetten put in a raise to 10,000 before Alexander Kostritsyn three-bet from the small blind to 27,000. Jetten opted to make the call in position and head to a flop.

The first three community cards came down {A-Hearts}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts}. Kostritsyn stayed aggressive with a bet of 23,000. Jetten made the call.

The {9-Spades} was added to the board on the turn and Kostritsyn moved all in for 82,500. Jetten snap-called holding the {A-Spades}{A-Clubs} for top set, the current nuts. Kostritsyn was drawing to an open-ended straight draw with the {Q-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}.

The river smacked the board with the {K-Diamonds} and nailed Kostritsyn's straight. He won the hand and doubled up to 270,000 after a miracle river card. Jetten was knocked back to 145,000 and left to think about only what could've been.
