Katchalov Catches Good

Several had limped to see the flop come {J-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}. It checked to a player in middle position who bet 3,600, then Eugene Katchalov raised to 11,200. It folded back around and the original raiser thought for a while, then pushed all in, and Katchalov called.

Katchalov turned over {J-Spades}{5-Spades} for top two, and his opponent {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}. The turn was the {10-Spades} and the river the {3-Diamonds}, and another player hit the rail. Katchalov chips up to about 85,000.
