Vladimir Troyanovskiy Three-Bets Andrey Kotelnikov

If Vladimir Troyanovskiy could choose one seat in the Day 2 draw it would likely be to the immediate left of the chip leader Andrey Kotelnikov and after his original table broke that is exactly where he has found himself.

Kotelnikov opened for 6,500 from early position and Troyanovskiy three-bet to 17,000. The rest of the players folded

The flop was {10-Spades}{k-Spades}{j-Clubs} and both players checked.

The turn was the {3-Diamonds} and a check from Kotelnikov saw a 15,000 bet from Troyanovskiy which took the pot.

Could this pattern be repeated throughout the day as two big stacks tangle with each other?
