Level 9
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Ivan Pavlov opened with a raise to 2,500 from early position and Andrey Zaichenko flat called from two seats over. It folded all of the way around to Chady Merhej in the big blind and he three-bet shipped for his last 30,500. Pavlov moved all in over the top, sending Zaichenko into the tank. In the end, Zaichenko let it go and the hands were exposed.
Pavlov: 
Merhej: 
The board fell 
[9d, keeping Merhej's ace-king high out in front. He scored the double and now has about 70,000 to his name.
