Tkatschew Doubles Up
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Wayne Harmon opened to 250,000 from the hijack and he was called by Alexander Tkatschew who defended from the big blind.
Both players checked the 9♥K♠J♣ flop leading to the 5♦ turn where Tkatschew bet 200,000. Harmon called.
The 7♣ river landed on the felt and Tkatschew decided to go all-in for 470,000. Harmon asked for the count and called with A♠J♥ for a pair. However Tkatschew had a better pair with K♣8♠ and doubled up.
