Zainescu Hits the Rail
Nivel 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Timur Mukhamedaminov raised to 16,000 from early position, and Carmen Zainescu called on the button.
Mukhamedaminov fired a continuation-bet of 21,000 on the 9♦7♦5♣ flop, and Zainescu called.
When the 5♥ fell on the turn, Mukhamedaminov asked for a count of Zainescu’s remaining chips. Seeing she had roughly 90,000 behind, Mukhamedaminov bet 46,000. Zainescu responded by moving all in, and Mukhamedaminov snap-called.
Carmen Zainescu: A♣Q♠ 
Timur Mukhamedaminov: Q♦10♦
Zainescu was ahead with ace-high, needing to fade Mukhamedaminov's flush draw to survive. However, the 3♦ landed on the river to complete Mukhamedaminov's flush, sending the start-of-Day 2 chip leader to an early exit.
