Flush for Katchalov

Eugene Katchalov
Eugene Katchalov

From under the gun, Team PokerStars Pro Eugene Katchalov raised to 2,500. This was the second hand at his table and he was called by Masa Kagawa in the next seat, Sam Trickett in the hijack seat, Jason Mercier on the button and Vanessa Selbst in the small blind.

All five of them saw the flop come down {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and action was first checked by Selbst. Katchalov bet 5,000 and everyone folded back to Selbst. She made the call.

The turn was the {8-Hearts} and now four hearts laid in the middle of the felt. Selbst checked and Katchalov bet 10,000. Selbst called. Them, the river card was the {10-Spades} and Selbst checked again. Katchalov bet 25,000 and Selbst tank-called.

Katchalov showed the {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} for the ace-high flush and Selbst mucked her hand.
