Charvinski Only Plays Trips; Skhulukhiya Comes From Behind to Double
Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Fahredin Mustafov bet 30,000 from the cutoff on a flop of 5♥5♦7♠ and Stanislau Charvinski called in the big blind.
Mustafov bet another 65,000 on the A♣ turn, and Charvinski moved all in. Mustafov snap-folded, and Charvinski showed the 5♠ as he took the pot.
"I told you, any pot minimum trips," tablemate Daniil Kiselev said.
At another table, Giorgiy Skhulukhiya had raised to 50,000 in the cutoff before Mehdi Chaoui three-bet to 175,000 in the big blind. Skhulukhiya moved all in for 650,000, and Chaoui snap-called.
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: A♠3♠ 
Mehdi Chaoui: A♣K♠
Skhulukhiya was dominated but moved in front on the 6♥3♣6♣ flop with two pair. The rest of the board ran out J♥7♠ and he doubled up.
