The TT Races

Just before the break a hand played out that didn't really go anywhere as Ivan Tikhov folded to the aggressive action of Taylor Paur. The Russian wasn't about to let that happen again.

Kenny Hallaert opened to 6,700 and was called by Tikhov before Paur squeezed to 26,200 from the big blind. The Belgian folded but Tikhov moved all-in for 96,000 after thinking for two minutes. Call.

Paur: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Tikhov: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}

The board ran {3-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{q-Clubs} to make Tikhov two-pair.
