Naimark's a Survivor

Action moved over to Orange #1, where, from late position, David Naimark came over the top of a preflop raise to 15,000 for all 56,000 of his chips. Doron Malinasky woke up with {A-Spades} {K-Hearts} in the small blind and reraised all in. When everyone folded, Malinasky (like so many other players today) found himself in a race against Naimark's {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs}. A board of {5-Spades} {6-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} {6-Hearts} failed to improve Malinasky's Big Slick and allowed Naimark to double up to 115,000.

Malinasky slipped to 173,000 on the hand.
