Baranov Rivers Nuts; Takes Over One Million From Cheong
Joseph Cheong raised to 65,000 from the cutoff and it folded to Sergii Baranov who called from the big blind.
The flop came 
and Baranov led into Cheong for 75,000. Cheong called and the 
came on fourth street. Baranov checked and Cheong fired 145,000. Baranov called and the 
finished the board.
Baranov checked for a second time and Cheong fired 375,000. Baranov would not be swayed, however, as he moved 1,075,000 into the middle.
"I call," said Cheong.
Baranov showed 
for the nuts and Cheong mucked his hand. Baranov is now sitting on 4.845 million while Cheong has fallen to 1.95 million.
