Chernikov Gets Punished for Celebrating Too Early

Level 20 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Arthur Thiriart
Arthur Thiriart

The action was caught as Arthur Thiriart, in the big blind, was all in and at risk for his effective stack of 133,000, against Aleksandr Chernikov, in early position.

Arthur Thiriart: A♥10♥ All in
Aleksandr Chernikov: 3♥2♥

The 2♦9♥2♠ flop had Chernikov erupt from his chair in celebration as if he'd already claimed Thiriarts' mystery bounty token. The A♦ was one of the few cards that kept Thiriart alive, giving pause to Chernikov's antics.

The unlikely A♣ landed on the river giving Thiriart a full house to double up. Thiriart erupted in a similar degree of celebration as if to tease Chernikov. The table laughed in unison, telling Chernikov that he celebrated too early.
