Chernikov Spikes an Ace Against Liperis' Kings
Level 8
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Yiannis Liperis had a great chance at having a stack of around 800,000, but instead he watched a big pot slide away from him and into the arms of Aleksandr Chernikov.
The action was caught at showdown, with presumably the chips going in preflop, on a board of Q♣9♥A♠J♦3♦. Liperis held K♣K♦ for a pair of kings, but Chernikov had spiked an ace holding A♦K♥ to drag the pot worth over 600,000.
