Double-Double for Katchalov
Stud-8
Eugene Katchalov completed all in for 110,000, and Ian Gordon called him. The boards ran out:
Katchalov: / /
Gordon: / /
Gordon was ahead with a pair of nines until Katchalov caught a queen on seventh to double up to 310,000.
"F^*k!" said Ashby, not caring that Katchalov was less than a foot away.
Hold'em
Katchalov doubled once again the next hand. He raised the small blind, Gordon three-bet from the big blind, and Katchalov called all in. Eugene held and had to dodge Gordon's . The board fell , and trip fours put Katchalov up to 650,000.
