Kirichenko Flips Saracoglu Out
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Aleksandr Kirichenko opened from under the gun and Atilla Saracoglu three-bet from the next seat to 75,000. When the action got back to Kirichenko he shoved for around 340,000. Saracoglu was in the tank for quite some time and had a very similar stack to his opponent, then after around two minutes, he elected to call.
Atilla Saracoglu: K♠Q♠ 
Aleksandr Kirichenko: J♣J♦
Saracoglu was pleased to find himself flipping, but not so pleased after the 3♥10♦9♥5♣5♠ runout meant he was eliminated just shy of the money.
