Milicevic Finds the Right Call
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
With around 30,000 in the middle on a Q♣2♠J♦ flop, Mihail Ketlerov checked from middle position and Srdan Milicevic fired 10,000 in the cutoff. Ketlerov called.
An A♦ hit the turn and after Ketlerov checked it over, then Milicevic bet 20,000, leaving around 36,000 behind. Ketlerov took some time before he asked for it all with a shove, and Milicevic took around twenty seconds before he called to put himself at risk.
Srdan Milicevic: A♠3♦ 
Mihail Ketlerov: Q♦8♦
Milicevic had figured it out, but needed the dealer to deliver a clean river for him to double up. That's exactly what happened as the 4♠ completed the board, earning Milicevic a stack of around 170,000.
