Limped Pot Sparks Fireworks
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Benjam limped from under the gun. Absir, Brelanciaga, 8, Guillaume Darcourt and Christophe Pollet all followed suit. Andrei Cherkashin bumped it up to 20,000 from the big blind and the action folded to 8. He jammed for 111,000. Darcourt and Pollet folded and then Cherkashin called off his stack of 67,000.
Andrei Cherkashin: 9♠9♦
8: A♣7♣
Cherkashin's nines had 8 drawing dead after the 10♣5♠4♦ flop and 9♥ turn. The 7♦ river was meaningless and Cherkashin welcomed the pot.
