Itkin Takes His Stand

Roman Valerstein raised under the gun, and his next-door neighbor, Max Itkin three-bet shoved for 172,000 total. Valerstein called with the {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts}, and Itkin's {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} had him poised for a double.

The board ran out {K-Spades} {8-Spades} {3-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds}, and the kicker plays to give Itkin the chip boost. He's just shy of 400,000 now, while Valerstein takes another little step backwards.
