Baranov a Late Challenger for Chip Lead

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Sergey Petrushevskiy opened to 9,000 and got two callers including Aben Zholgaliev. Vadim Baranov three-bet to 23,000 from the big blind and Petrushevskiy and Zholgaliev were the only callers.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Zholgaliev checked and Baranov continued for 15,000. Petrushevskiy raised to 48,000 and both players called.

The turn was the {q-Spades}. Zholgaliev checked and Baranov bet 15,000. Petrushevskiy called before Zholgaliev check-raised all in for well in excess of 200,000. Baranov called and Petrushevskiy folded.

Aben Zholgaliev: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}
Vadim Baranov: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

It was set over set and the {2-Clubs} confirmed Zholgaliev's elimination, with Baranov moving over 800,000 and challenging Aleksandr Denisov for the chip lead.
