Katch Me If You Can

An early position player opened to 700 only to find Eugene Katchalov three-bet to 1,700. It folded around to the small blind and she threw in calling chips. The original raiser decided to tag along as well.

The trio saw a flop of {5-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and there were two checks to Katchalov. The WSOP bracelet winner fired 2,100 and was called by both of his opponents.

The {K-Clubs} turned and there were two checks to Katchalov for a second time. He bet 6,000 and the small blind folded her cards. The original raiser came over the top for 21,000 which led Katchalov to go into the tank. After about one minute, Katchalov announced that he was all in for 12,650 more. His opponent thought for quite some time before finally getting rid of his cards.

Winning this pot brings Katchalov to about 65,500 in chips.
