Huge Double Up for Rand

Level 42 : 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante

Anatolii Zyrin opened to 6,000,000 from under the gun and Kevin Rand moved all in for 39,300,000 on the button. Zyrin asked for a quick count and then dropped some chips in to make the call.

Kevin Rand: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Anatolii Zyrin: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}

Despite being dominated preflop, Zyrin flopped the best hand on the {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop. However, the {k-Hearts} on the turn quickly flipped the script as Rand moved into the lead. The {6-Spades} on the river was a brick and Rand scored a big double up.

Level 42 : 1,500,000/3,000,000, 3,000,000 ante

Anatolii Zyrin limped in from the small blind and Phuoc Nguyen checked his option. The flop came {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Zyrin led out with a bet of 3,500,000. Nguyen called and the {8-Hearts} landed on the turn.

Both players checked and the {7-Hearts} on the river put four hearts on the board. Zyrin sized up a bet of 9,500,000 and Nguyen quickly tossed his cards. Zyrin showed his rail {j-Spades}{6-Clubs} for complete air as he dragged in the pot.
