Katchalov KO'd, Lemon Advances

Eugene Katchalov was very short when Reagan Lemon forced him all in preflop and Katchalov's {k-Clubs}{j-Spades} was racing against Lemon's {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}.

The {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop was very interesting. Katchalov flopped an open-ended straight draw and still had overs, but any diamond would give Lemon a flush. The {4-Spades} on the turn was a brick and the {7-Hearts} on the river was too, and Katchalov hit the rail.

Lemon is now guaranteed $5,632 and will return tomorrow for a shot at more.
