Kharkov Makes A Loose Call

KaleGozer

Niveau 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Eli Ross raised to 9,000, Alexander Kharkov called one seat over and Ben Yu called from the cutoff. Dragos Trofimov, on the button, rose up from his chair to check what was happening at the other tables. He then shoved all in for 45,000.

Ross folded, Kharkov called with relative ease, and Yu folded after some thought.

Dragos Trofimov:
Alexander Kharkov:

"Ooh!" Trofimov and Kharkov both exclaimed and they laughed. Kharkov, who was chip leader for a long-time today, found a connection on the flop but Trofimov faded the spades on the turn and river.

"Man, what a sweat against you!" Trofimov said in relief. "Even with this, I don't want a call," he said, pointing at his kings.
