Charette's Queens Cripple Katchalov
We caught up with the action just as a huge pile of chips were being passed on to Simon Charette. It appeared that Charette and Eugene Katchalov had gotten into a preflop raising war with Charette getting all in for his last 173,000 against Katchalov, who had him covered.
Katchalov: 
Charette: 
The 
board did not improve Katchalov's hand and Charette doubled through.
Charette is back up to 300,000 while Katchalov is down to his last 90,000.
