Vladimir Shchemelev raised on the button and Kenny Hsiung re-raised from the small blind. Shchemelev made it four bets and his opponent called as they saw a {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades} flop. Hsiung check-called Shchemelev’s bet and the action was the same when the {2-Diamonds} hit the turn. Both players checked on the {Q-Clubs} river and Hsiung turned over {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}. Shchemelev showed {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} which had his opponent outkicked as he scooped the pot.
