Kravets Stacks a Player
Level 12
: Blinds 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante
Boris Kravets raised to 5,000 from early position, and once it folded to the small blind Edward Leonard, he made the call. Then the big blind three-bet all in for 56,100, and Kravets called to put him at risk. Leonard quickly got out of the way, leaving the two players heads up.
Big Blind: 4♥4♦ 
Boris Kravets: A♠Q♥
The big blind was ahead with his pocket fours, but once the board ran out 9♠A♥9♣5♣7♥ Kravets improved to the best hand with two pair, aces and nines to eliminate the player in the big blind and take the pot.
