Kaliahin Gets a Big Double
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Action was opened to 30,000 from middle position before Ihor Kaliahin put in a cold three-bet from the cutoff to 100,000. The action was then on Leonid Sidelkovskiy on the button who put in a tiny four-bet to 175,000. The original raiser folded and then Kaliahin moved all in.
Sidelkovskiy snap called and the cards hit their backs with Kaliahin all in and at risk.
Ihor Kaliahin: A♥K♦
Leonid Sidelkovskiy: A♣Q♥
Kaliahin drilled two pair on the 8♣K♣A♠ flop. The dealer would still give a sweat when the 3♣ rolled off on the turn giving Sidelkovskiy the nut flush draw. However, the 4♥ river was safe and Kaliahin held to get a double in a big spot right after the bubble.
