Tukmachev Calls Off Against Habib
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/3,500, 3,500 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 9♣3♥A♠, Michel Habib bet 50,000 from the button and Ivan Tukmachev called in middle position.
The turn was the 8♣ and Habib moved all in. Tukmachev had around 40,000 remaining and called with K♠9♠ for a pair of nines. Habib, though, had A♦K♦ for top pair.
The river came the 7♦ and Tukmachev was sent to the rail.
"It's Christmas time," Habib said as he took the pot.
