Tkatschew Wins the Flip to Double Through Pereira
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Kirill Burtin opened 500,000 in the cutoff before Alexander Tkatschew three-bet to 1,100,000 on the button. Eduardo Pereira was in the big blind and dropped a stack across the line for a raise to 10,000,000, forcing Burtin out of the pot but Tkatschew snap-called his remaining stack of 5,800,000.
Alexander Tkatschew: Q♦Q♣
Eduardo Pereira: A♣K♥
It was a coin flip and the 10♦6♥5♦ flop changed nothing. The Q♥ fell on the turn, giving Tkatschew a set and the 2♦ river was a brick sealing his double.
