Roman Korenev just could not win a race yesterday and still managed to grind to the very end of the day. Today has been going somewhat different, though, as he starts to build a stack after winning a few hands.
There was a short stack that moved all in for around 4,000 and Korenev made the call. The players then turned over their hands and Korenev's opponent would be at risk.
Roman Korenev: 
Opponent: 
The board ran out 
and Korenev's king kicker took down the pot.

After a very strong start, Arkadiy Tsinis appears to have had a difficult run of late.
Most recently he lost a medium sized pot after he kicked things off with a 500 open and got two calls behind, before the small blind three-bet to 2,300. Only Tsinis called and the dealer put 
out on the flop. There was a 2,000 continuation and Tsinis opted to fold, leaving him with half what he started today with.
