Bronshtein Doubles Through Kovalchuk

Stud-8

Yuval Bronshtein: {x-} {x-} / {6-Spades} {2-Spades} {k-Spades} {5-Spades} / {x-}
Mark Gregorich: {x-} {x-} / {j-Spades} {3-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} (FOLDED)
Oleksii Kovalchuk: {x-} {x-} / {4-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {6-Clubs} / {x-}

There was a completion and a raise on third street, and on fourth, all three players checked. Bronshtein led out on fifth, Gregorich released, and Kovalchuk raised enough to put Bronshtein all in. He called.

Bronshtein: {6-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}
Kovalchuk: {6-Spades} {4-Spades}

The {5-Spades} on sixth gave Bronshtein two pair, and Kovalchuk couldn't make a winning low or trips. Bronshtein scooped the pot, doubling to 270,000 chips.

Yuval Bronshtein	270,000 148,000	148,000
