The Battle Marches Onward

On the button, Arkadiy Tsinis opted to limp in and Michael Blanovsky checked to bring a flop of {7-Spades}{6-Spades}{J-Hearts} to the table. Blanovsky then led out for 125,000 and Tsinis made the call. Both players checked the {K-Spades} on the turn and after the river came {Q-Hearts}, Blanovsky check-folded to a bet of 500,000.

Later, Tsinis limped in again from the button and Blanovsky checked once more. The flop came {A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} and Blanovsky check-called a bet of 100,000. On the {10-Diamonds} turn card, both players checked and the {J-Clubs} arrived on the river. After another round of checks, Blanovsky revealed his {K-Clubs}{8-Spades} for a pair of kings and took the pot down.

With just a half hour or so left in the last level of tonight's action, both players seem willing to remain patient and return tomorrow if necessary.
