Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

After Eugene Katchalov raised to 50,000 from the hijack, JP Kelly made it 130,000 from the button and Katchalov made the call. The two of them saw a flop. "He's out of position without the pre-flop betting lead," said James Hartigan on the live stream at pokerstars.tv. Katchalov checked, Kelly bet 135,000 and Katchalov called to create a pot of more than 500,000 as the hit the turn.

Again Katchalov checked, Kelly bet 230,000 and again Katchalov called. The river went check-check, Kelly showed whilst Katchalov had . After that hand Kelly is up to 2,580,000 whilst Katchalov slips to 843,000.
