Gunchev Gets the Maximum
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Anatoliy Zlotnikov limped in from the small blind. Nikola Gunchev raised to 800, from the big blind, and Zlotnikov responded with a reraise to 3,800. Gunchev called.
The Q?8?9? flop slowed down Zlotnikov, who checked and then called a bet of 4,000 from Gunchev.
The 5? turn saw Zlotnikov check again. Gunchev bet out 8,000 and Zlotnikov check-raised, moving all in for Gunchev's effective stack of 22,000. Gunchev snap-called,
Nikola Gunchev: 8?8? 
Anatoliy Zlotnikov: A?K?
Gunchev's flopped set avoided a spade on the K? river, earning him a full double-up.
