Kaverman, Danchev Find Early Doubles
Anatoly Korochenskiy raised to 40,000 under the gun and Dimitar Danchev called in the big blind.
The flop came 2♦8♥4♥ and Korochenski continued for 45,000. Danchev called and the A♠ fell on the turn.
Korochenskiy then moved all in and Danchev called for his last 150,000. Korochenskiy showed K♦J♦, while Danchev was ahead with A♣5♣.
The river was the J♠ and Danchev doubled up, leaving Korochenskiy on a short stack.
At the same time at another table, Byron Kaverman raised to 285,000 as Clement Michaud used a time bank before reshoving from the cutoff. The table folded back to Kaverman in the hijack who also used a time bank before tossing in his last 5,000.
Byron Kaverman: A♥10♠
Clement Michaud: 8♣8♠
The 10♥5♣10♠ flop gave Kaverman trip tens, while the A♠ turn improved him to a full house and left Michaud drawing dead going to the A♦ river as Kaverman doubled.
