Katchalov Gets a Fold
A player raised to 1,000 from middle position. Action folded to Eugene Katchalov on the button who three-bet to 3,000. The blinds got out of the way and the initial raiser made the call to send the two players heads-up to the flop.
The middle position player checked on the 
flop and Katchalov continued for 4,000. After lengthy consideration, his opponent called.
On the 
turn the middle position player checked for a second time and again faced a bet, this time a heftier 6,000, from Katchalov. The player from middle position did eventually make the call.
The 
river paired the board and action once more was checked to Katchalov, who did not pause for long before announcing all in. His opponent wasted little time before folding, sending a sizable pot Katchalov's way.
