Uspenskii and Chernokoz Clash
Level 21
: 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Two big stacks collided on a big pot, but eventually there was no all in showdown. Picking up the action on the 
flop, Konstantin Uspenskii had checked out of the big blind and Andrey Chernokoz continued for 500,000. Uspenskii check-raised to 1.575 million and picked up a call.
The 
turn was checked through and the 
appeared on the river. Uspenskii used two time banks before checking and Chernokoz used one time bank before betting 2.5 million. That was the end of the drama, however, as Uspenskii folded.
One table over is another big stack from Russia and that happens to be partypoker ambassador Anatoly Filatov.
Action resumes on the stone cold money bubble.
