Shornikau Finds a Double
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Nicolas Chouity made it 400,000 to go from under the gun and Maksim Shornikau shoved 1,075,000 from the hijack. When it got back to Chouity, he called.
Maksim Shornikau: K♥Q♣ 
Nicolas Chouity A♦5♣
Chouity was ahead, but the 6♠6♦K♦ flop gave Shornikau a pair of kings and the lead. A 6♣ brought an extra out for Chouity as any six would give him quads with an ace-kicker, but that wasn't to be as the 8♣ river confirmed Shornikau's double-up.
