Chernikov Scoops a Bounty and a Double
Level 18
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
The action was caught as Jon Vallinas, who was under the gun, had both Jacob Stone, in early position, and Aleksandr Chernikov, in the hijack, all in and at risk.
Jacob Stone: A♣7♣ 
Aleksandr Chernikov: 6♥6♣
Jon Vallinas: 9♥9♠
Vallinas needed to hold to score two bounties, however, the 8♣6♠5♦ flop saw Chernikov take the lead with a set. The J♠ turn and A♥ river saw Chernikov more than double up, taking Stone's bounty in the process.
