High Roller Shark Kurganov Doubles

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Max Lykov opened to 10,000 in middle position, Aaron Lim called on the button, and Igor Kurganov defended out of the big blind.

The dealer fanned {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, Kurganov checked, and Lykov fired 13,500. Lim called, Kurganov check-raised to 75,000, and Lykov re-raised to 106,500. Lim got out of the way, and Kurganov moved all in for 312,000.

The Team Pro tanked for quite some time, then called.

Kurganov: {j-Clubs}{7-Spades}
Lykov: {a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

The turn and river came {q-Clubs}, {7-Diamonds} respectively, and Kurganov doubled. His good buddy Philipp Gruissem was behind him when the {7-Diamonds} completed the board, and clapped Kurganov on the back. Kurganov gave a hearty fist pump.

Lykov took a big hit, but is still strong with 345,000 chips.
