Level 6 : 100/200, 50 ante

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.
