Katchalov Killing It, In Chip Lead

Eugene Katcholov
Eugene Katcholov

Eugene Katchalov raised it to 24,000 from the small blind and got re-raised to 36,000 by Ari Engel in the big blind. Katchalov called and the two saw the {9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop.

Katchalov checked the flop, Engel bet out 12,000 and Katchalov called.

The turn came {7-Diamonds} Katchalov checked, Engel again bet out for 24,000 and Katchalov called.

The river was the {7-Spades} and one last time, Katchalov checked, Engel bet, and Katchalov called.

Engel showed {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} but they were bested by the {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} of Katchalov.

Katchalov has a big chip lead now with nearly 900,000.
