Markholt Chipping Up

Level 21 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Oleksii Khoroshenin opened to 45,000 from the hijack and Lee Markholt called from the small blind.

The flop came down {6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and Markholt checked to Khoroshenin who continued for 53,000. Markholt called to see the {K-Diamonds} turn, which both players checked. The {Q-Hearts} river completed the board and Markholt bet 78,000. Khoroshenin folded, giving Markholt the pot.
