Snead Correctly Calls Iermolcheva
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Olga Iermolcheva raised to 60,000 from early position and Paul Snead called in middle position which saw all subsequent action fold.
The flop rolled out 10♥10♣7♣ and Iermolcheva checked over to Snead who bet 100,000. Iermolcheva moved all in for 390,000 total and Snead went into the tank.
"Why did I bet the flop?" asked Snead as he pondered his decision. After some more time he called for most of his chips and the cards were tabled.
Olga Iermolcheva: 5♥5♦ 
Paul Snead: 8♣8♠
The board ran out Q♦8♦ and Snead improved on the river to a full house though he was already ahead. He hopped up to over one million while Iermolcheva was eliminated from the tournament.
