Kirichenko Leaves Nikitin on Fumes
Niveau 29
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Anatoly Nikitin moved all in from the small blind, covering Aleksandr Kirichenko who had 895,000 in the big blind. Kirichenko made the call to put himself at risk.
Aleksandr Kirichenko:A♣6♦
Anatoly Nikitin: K♠8♥
Kirichenko was ahead with his ace but Nikitin took the lead with top pair on the A♦ turn. The 10♠ river changed nothing and Kirichenko secured a much-needed double up while Nikitin was left with just under six big blinds.
