I'm not in this tournament anymore, but still-- bring on the Russians!

Pot-Limit Omaha

John Juanda opened for 43,000, Vladimir Schmelev called and Ilya Bulychev re-potted all-in for an additional 132,000. Juanda folded and Schmelev called.

Bulychev {A-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {5-Spades}
Schmelev {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {2-Clubs}

Bulychev made two pair on the {A-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {2-Spades} {9-Spades} board and doubled up to 400,000.

"I knew a Russian would win that pot," Robert Mizrachi quipped as Bulychev stacked up his chips.
