Di Giacomo Takes Another Hit as Kokoulin Holds On to Double
Level 27
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Claudio Di Giacomo raised to 130,000 in the cutoff and Volodymyr Kokoulin called in the big blind.
Kokoulin led out for 335,000 on the A?6?4? flop and Di Giacomo moved all in. Kokoulin quickly called for 605,000 total.
Volodymyr Kokoulin: A?K?5?3? 
Claudio Di Giacomo: 10?9?9?3?
Kokoulin was ahead with a pair of aces but needed to dodge Di Giacomo's flush draw. The A? turn improved him to trips, while the river was the 7? and Kokoulin doubled up.
