The 344 flop gave Pustina some added outs, but the 4 turn gave him one less street with which to find one. As if he already knew his fate. Zizka chucked his bounty chip over to Palma before the 10 river hit the felt, giving Palma a boat.

Givens Takes With Queens

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The hand was picked up with big blind Dragan Dimishkov, Ihar Soika, who was under the gun and William Givens, the button, all in preflop.

The board hit 810K. Dimishkov checked. Soika bet 8,000. Givens raised to 23,000.

After Dimishkov folded, Soika moved all in. Givens made the call with his last 50,000 chips.

William Givens: Q6All in
Ihar Soika: AA

Soika's pair of aces were up against Givens' flush draw and random backdoor possibilities. Well, the turn and river being QQ brought in one of the oddities, as Givens took down the pot with trip queens.
