Karakitukov Survives With a Chop
Level 25
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Filip Lovric raised to 375,000 and Veselin Karakitukov called.
The flop came 4?5?2? and Lovric continued for 300,000. Karakitukov then raised to 1,775,000, Lovric moved all in, and Karakitukov committed his last 415,000.
Veselin Karakitukov: 7?5?4?3?
Filip Lovric: A?K?7?3?
Lovric had one hand on the trophy as he showed the flopped straight and nut flush draw, while Karakitukov had two pair.
The K? turn left Lovric one card away from the title and he began celebrating once the A? fell on the river before realizing Karakitukov had made the same straight and they chopped the pot.
