Katchalov Catches a Set

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

After a flop of {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{3-Hearts} Mikhail Smirnov bet 1,200 from under the gun and was called by Eugene Katchalov on the button. When the turn brought the {j-Clubs}, Smirnov check-called a bet of 2,100 from Katchalov. The river was the {a-Hearts} and Smirnov again opted to check-call a bet from Katchalov, this time for 4,200.

Katchalov flipped over his {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for a set of threes and Smirnov mucked his hand.
