Froehlich Shoves Again

Level 27 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Mikhail Yakovlev opened with a cutoff raise to 95,000, and Eric Froehlich called from the small blind. Heads up, they took a {10-Spades} {7-Spades} {8-Spades} flop, and Froehlich patted the table. Yakovlev took his cue to bet 150,000, but Froehlich check-raised to 350,000. The call came relatively quickly, and the {6-Clubs} dropped on fourth street. Froehlich went ahead and shoved in, effectively for the ~1 million chips that Yakovlev had in front of him. After a long soak in the tank, Yakovlev laid it down, and Froehlich's rail exploded with celebration.

We'll have to wait until he stacks up, but he should be just over 3 million chips now.
