button in SafariChernikov and Katchalov Keep Exchanging Raises
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Eugene Katchalov open-raised to 4,500 in the hijack. Aleksandr Chernikov three-bet to 12,000 on the button, and Katchalov called.
Chernikov continued for 5,000 on the 10♠10♣6♦, which Katchalov check-raised to 20,000. Chernikov called, after which Katchalov doubled his sizing to 40,000 on the 4♦ turn.
However, Chernikov min-raised to 80,000. Katchalov just called, but he led out for 30,000 when the 3♣ hit the river. Chernikov put his opponent all in for roughly double that, and Katchalov called off his final chips.
Chernikov tabled 6♠6♥ for a full house. Katchalov had flopped trips with J♦10♦, but it was not enough and he was sent to the exit.
