Penev Gets Tricky for a Double
Level 29
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Just before the blinds went up, Zlatin Penev limped in the cutoff and Levan Rcheulishvili raised to 460,000 in the small blind. Lazare Kalebashvili called in the big blind and Penev then moved all-in for 2,680,000 and Rcheulishvili went deep into the tank.
As the clock was called on him, Rcheulishvili called at the very last second of his 30 second countdown and Kalebashvili shook his head to a fold a few seconds later.
Zlatin Penev: A♣A♥
Levan Rcheulishvili: A♠Q♦
The aces were not cracked on the Q♣6♥3♣8♦9♥ runout and Penev more than doubled.
