The Grand Duke Konstantin Finds His Queen

Level 6 : 150/300, 25 ante

Adam "roothlus" Levy opened to 650 and Konstantin Tolokno flatted from the hijack. When a third player moved all in over the top for a sizable stack, Levy committed the rest of his chips as well, likely thinking the big bets would force Tolokno out of the pot.

Unfortunately for them, the Russian pro quickly called with his {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}, which put him out in front of one player's {A-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}, and Levy's {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}.

The flop of {q-Hearts}{k-Spades}{7-Spades} brought a little something for everyone, as Tolokno flopped a set, Levy a gutshot straight draw, and the third player top pair.

The turn ({3-Hearts}) and river ({7-Hearts}) changed nothing, however, and Tolokno's set held up to score the massive double knockout.
