Chudapal Triples Up, Malinov Ships Big Side Pot
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Siarhei Chudapal was already all in on the button when the board read K?6?8?K?. There was a 25,000 main pot and a side pot was brewing between Atanas Malinov in middle position and Andre Marques in the cutoff. That pot had 37,000 chips in it when Malinov checked and Marques bet 40,000 chips. Malinov made the call and the 5? river rolled off.
Malinov checked once more before Marques announced "all in". Malinov tanked for quite a while until a neutral player called the clock. Before his countdown ended, he put in the call. He won the side pot when Marques could only show 2?2? for a pair of deuces, while Malinov had K?10? for trip kings. However, Chudapal had the winner for the main pot when he tabled K?Q? for trip kings with a higher kicker.
