Katchalov's Ladies See Him Progress

On a board reading {7-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts} Eugene Katchalov was faced with a 20,000-chip bet into a pot of around the same amount.

Katchalov grabbed a stack of assorted chips amounting around 43,000 and dropped them in front of his cards to put his opponent all in.

After several minutes in the tank, Katchalov's opponent made the call for his tournament life tabling {7-Spades}{6-Spades} to be drawing dead to Katchalov's {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}.

The meaningless {8-Diamonds} landed on the river to send Katchalov through to round two action.
