Big Pot for Aleksandr Kuzmin

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

There were already a lot of chip in the middle preflop and with the dealer fanning {4-Hearts}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs} Dmitrii Kopyl had moved all in and the decision was on Aleksandr Kuzmin who had slightly fewer chips that Kopyl. Eventually though he steeled himself and called to see the good news.

Kopyl: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Kuzmin: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Kuzmin had to dodge six cards over the last two streets and with the turn {j-Spades} and river {3-Diamonds} completing the board he did just that to get a big double up.

Kopyl was left with 2,000 and was eliminated shortly after.
