Alekandr Kostritsyn's High-Stakes Poker Victory and Radio Interview


Alekandr Kostritsyn, known as PostflopAction, recently played a high-stakes game of Pot Limit Omaha (PLO) against Ilari Sahamies, resulting in a significant win for Kostritsyn. Kostritsyn typically plays 100$/200$ PLO but played 7-игр 1500$/3000$ last week. The most significant hand between them occurred in PLO, where PostflopAction raised 1800$ from the small blind and received a 3-bet of 5400$ from Sahamies. Kostritsyn called. On the flop Td 6h 4s, Ziigmund bet 10,800$, and Kostritsyn called. The turn was Qs, and Sahamies bet 32,400$. PostflopAction raised to 129,600$, and Sahamies called, leaving himself with only 12,484$. On the river Jd, Ziigmund pushed his remaining stack into the pot. Although he managed to make a straight with 9h 9d 8s 7s, PostflopAction revealed Ks Tc 9s 4d, winning with two pairs from the flop and a higher straight on the river. According to PokerNews, Kostritsyn reduced Sahamies' bankroll by 576,000$ over Thursday and Friday.

Kostritsyn will be a guest on Ilya Gorodetsky's radio show on February 4, 2010. The radio show will be a live broadcast where Kostritsyn will answer questions from listeners about his marathon and high-stakes poker games.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
