Ukraine Beats Up On Russia

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Eugene Katchalov and Alex Kravchenko may both be members of Team PokerStars Pro but there's no team in I when battle commences over the baize.

Kravchenko raised to 28,000 and both blinds called (Katchalov in the BB) to see a {k-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{3-Diamonds} flop.

The action was checked to the Russian who continued for 42,000. The small blind took a long while to fold but Katchalov snap shoved when it was his time to act. Kravchenko poked out his bottom lip out, shrugged and made the call all-in for another 120,000 or so.

Katchalov: {q-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for a pair and flush draw.
Kravchenko: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for top pair.

Katchalov got instant service on the {7-Diamonds} turn to finish the act and eliminate Kravchenko.
