Galchenko Flops a Set to Avoid Elimination
Level 25
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Konstantin Galchenko shoved from early position for around 3,000,000 and Maksim Bura made the call to go bounty hunting.
Konstantin Galchenko: 9♦9♣ 
Maksim Bura: A♦2♣
Galchenko was in great shape with two nines against the ace-deuce of Bura. The 9♥8♥5♦ flop improved Galchenko to a set and left Bura almost drawing the dead. The rest of the board came K♥4♥, and Galchenko doubled with his set of nines.
