Katchalov Doubles Through Schleich

Level 33 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante

From the small blind, Martin Schleich raised to 500,000. Eugene Katchalov called from the big blind and the flop came down {A-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. Schleich bet 400,000 and Katchalov made the call.

The turn was {Q-Hearts} and Schleich fired 800,000. Katchalov raised all in for 2.885 million and Schleich called after only a few seconds of thought. He held the {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}, but was behind Katchalov's {Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}.

The river completed the board with the {4-Diamonds} and Katchalov's turned two pair held up. He doubled up to around 7.5 million.
