Chauskin Busts Hrabec to Take Huge Pot
Natan Chauskin opened to 17,000 under the gun and action folded to Roman Hrabec in the small blind. He reached for chips and produced a three-bet to 70,000.
Action folded back to Chauskin, who confirmed the amount of the raise, before announcing a four-bet to 190,000. Both players had around 800,000 at the start of the hand, Chauskin having slightly more.
Hrbaec went deep into thought, and disposed of two time banks before moving the rest of his chips into the middle. Chauskin made the quick call to create a huge 1,600,000 pot.
Roman Hrabec: A?K? 
Natan Chauskin: K?K?
In a huge cooler, Hrabec's ace-king was in bad shape versus Chauskin's kings, and matters went further downhill for Hrabec after the K?8?3? flop gave Chauskin top set.
Hrabec threatened a miraculous escape with the A? turn, but the Q? river did not bring the ace Hrabec required, and he was sent to the rail.
