Katchalov Doubles Through Grafton
Action folded to Team PokerStars Pro Eugene Katchalov in the small blind, and he was quick to complete the bet with Sam Grafton to his left in the big blind. Grafton checked to see the 
flop roll out. Katchalov bet 1,200, and Grafton called.
On the turn, the 
was added to the board. Katchalov kept on the gas with a bet of 2,600. Grafton went nowhere and made the call.
The 
landed on the river to complete the board. With 23,900 left in his stack, Katchalov fired 5,200 of it. Grafton raised to put him all in, and Katchlov snap-called.
Grafton showed the 
for a straight, but Katchalov's 
was good for a higher straight and he won the pot to double his stack.
