Rogov Doubles via Suvarna

Richard Hayes

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Maksim Rogov opened to 20,000 under the gun, and received calls from Dick Postel in early position and Akin Tuna on the button, before Santhosh Suvarna produced a three-bet to 100,000 from the small blind.

Action back to Rogov, who thought through the spot for a moment before moving all in for around 205,000. Postel took some time to think before folding, and Tuna quickly followed suit. Suvarna made the quick call.

Maksim Rogov: A?K? All in
Santhosh Suvarna: 9?9?

Rogov was behind in a race, and remained so after the Q?7?2? flop. When the flop was spread, Postel let out a yelp of disappointment and stated he had folded A?10?.

The K? rolled off on the turn to put Rogov in front, and he shouted "Hold!" as the dealer prepared to put out the river.

The river was a brick J?, and Rogov hit the table in celebration.
