Karmatckii Finds Heat
Bin Weng opened to 50,000 from the cutoff and was called by Andrew Moreno on the button as well as Arsenii Karmatckii out of the big blind.
Action checked through the 
flop to the 
turn where Karmatckii checked for a second time. Weng led out for 80,000 which got Moreno to release his hand while Karmatckii made the call.
Karmatckii checked again on the 
river and then snap called when Weng bet 240,000. Weng confidently tabled 
but he was beaten to the pot by Karmatckii's better two pair with 
.
A couple of hands later action folded to Karmatckii on the button and he raised. The small blind player responded with a three-bet to 215,000 and the big blind got out of the way to send the action back to Karmatckii. He, after some thought, announced all in, causing the small blind to go into the tank. After several minutes, the small blind, with 500,000 behind, open folded 
and Karmatckii showed the table he had been dealt .
