Malay Nearly Doubles As Serafimov Gets Admonished

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Elvira Malay

Sergey Serafimov opened to 2,000 in middle position and Elvira Malay three-bet to 4,100 in the cutoff. Serafimov called.

Serafimov checked on the flop of 7?A?4? and Malay continued for 7,000. Serafimov called. Serafimov checked on the 8? turn and Malay checked back.

Serafimov checked again on the K? river and Malay bet 15,000. Serafimov check-raised with a stack of blue chips that ended up being 50,000 as Malay moved all in for 55,000.

There was then some confusion as Serafimov waited for Malay to show K?K? for a set of kings before mucking his hand and refusing to surrender the additional 5,000.

The floor was called and ruled that Serafimov did not owe the 5,000 but admonished him as Malay argued that Serafimov would never fold for 5,000 more. Still, Malay looked happy to take the 50,000 and the rest of the pot for a near double.
