Karapanau Ships a Monster Pot
Level 21
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Roberto Romanello raised to 25,000 from early position, Ryhor Karapanau called in the hijack, as did Aleksandr Chernikov and Apoorva Goel, in the respective blinds.
The 6?A?10? flop checked through to the J? on the turn. Chernikov took the lead for 75,000. Goel and Romanello folded, while Karapanau raised to 180,000. Chernikov called.
The A? river saw Chernikov play out of flow, leading for 265,000. Karapanau thought for some time before choosing to make the call. Chernikov tabled Q?8? for queen-high, while Karapanau won this pot with K?Q? for the nut straight.
