Gadzhiev Back-Jams With Pocket Kings

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Roman Gadzhiev
Roman Gadzhiev

Maxime Chilaud opened to 20,000 from the hijack with Roman Gadzhiev calling from the cutoff before Maksim Shornikau three-bet to 115,000 out of the big blind. Chilaud called, and then Gadzhiev back-jammed for roughly 800,000 in total. Shornikau, who had a similar amount of chips, went into the tank. After thinking for around a minute, he let go of his hand. Chilaud also tank-folded, and Gadzhiev turned over KK as he pulled in the pot.
