Achille Finds a King on the River to Double
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Action folded to Mikhail Zavoloka in the hijack and he opened to 600,000. Jacopo Achille responded with a three-bet to 1,800,000 from the cutoff. After a brief pause, Zavoloka moved all in, putting Achille at risk. Achille double-checked his cards, then made the call.
Jacopo Achille: A♦K♥
Mikhail Zavoloka: 10♠10♥
Achille was trailing preflop and needed to connect with the board to stay alive. The flop came Q♦J♦Q♠, giving him a gutshot and several backdoor outs but no immediate help.
The 6♣ on the turn kept Zavoloka ahead, but the K♣ on the river changed everything, giving Achille top pair and the winning hand. He scored a massive double-up and brought himself to the top of the chip counts.
