Kudinov up Early

Level 2 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Joe McKeehen opened to 5,000 from under-the-gun and was called by Viktor Kudinov in the hijack.

McKeehen check-called an 8,000 bet from Kudinov on the {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{q-Spades} flop and then McKeehen led out for 8,000 on the {q-Diamonds} turn. Kudinov raised to 24,000 and McKeehen called.

Both players checked on the end and McKeehen tabled {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a pair of aces. It was no good, however, against Kudinov's {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} for a flush and he collected the pot.
