Katchalov Hits the River For the First Knockout
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Eugene Katchalov three-bet to 2,200 in the small blind and an opponent in middle position called.
The flop came 9♥7♦7♣ and Katchalov bet 1,600. His opponent called to the 5♦ turn, where Katchalov bet another 5,000. His opponent again called.
The river was the 6♥ and Katchalov moved all in. His opponent snap-called for his last 15,500, and Katchalov turned over 10♥8♥ for a rivered straight. His opponent mucked and headed off to the exit as the first elimination of the tournament.
