Karakitukov Keeps Climbing
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Anh Do raised to 27,000 under the gun and Bjorn Verbakel called on the button. Veselin Karakitukov then three-bet to 120,000 in the small blind, and only Verbakel called with just 25,000 remaining
The flop came 7♥5♣4♠ and Karakitukov tossed in a chip to put Verbakel all in. Verbakel committed the rest of his stack.
Bjorn Verbakel: A♣Q♥10♦7♣ 
Veselin Karakitukov: K♦K♣9♦3♦
Verbakel needed to improve against Karakitukov's kings, but he couldn't connect with the 2♠ turn or 8♠ river and was sent to the rail.
