Katchalov Takes a Big Pot

Level 18 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

From the button, Eugene Katchalov raised to 125,000 and Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu called from the big blind. The flop came down {K-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts} and Negreanu checked. Katchlov fired 150,000 and Negreanu called.

The {6-Diamonds} fell on the turn and Negreanu checked again. Katchalov slid out a bet of 350,000. Negreanu made the call and this pot was getting big.

The river card was the {5-Spades} and Negreanu checked. Katchalov fired a big bet worth 1.15 million. Negreanu thought for a bit and began talking to himself out loud as he so often does in poker. He commented on the hand being a cooler and wondered aloud what Katchalov could have. Eventually, he made the call.

Katchalov tabled the {K-}{6-}, a red king and a black six. Negreanu mucked and commented that he had Katchalov on the flop. Timely turn card for Katchalov if that is true and he's up to 6.9 million. Negreanu dropped to 2.6 million.
