Andrey Kotelnikov Takes the Chip Lead

Stuart Guite raises to 800,000 on the hijack and Oleg Vasylchenko flats on the cutoff. Andrey Kotelnikov has on the button and he squeezes to 3.2 million. It gets a fold from Guite but Vasylchenko calls to see an flop.

With middle pair, when it checks to Kotelnikov, he opts to make a super small continuation bet of 1 million into a 7 million pot. Vasylchenko calls but neither player puts any more chips in on the turn and river, and Kotelnikov’s pair of queens are good for the pot.

Andrey Kotelnikov – 20 million
Oleg Vasylchenko – 19.8 million
