Koleznev Sends Valderan Home, Cracks Pocket Kings with Flopped Full House
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Soner Valderan opened to 15,000 from under the gun and Dmitry Koleznev called from the hijack.
The flop came 
and Valderan continued for 18,000. Koleznev needed nearly his whole allotted 30 seconds before making the call.
On the 
turn, Valderan shoved for just under pot and Koleznev snapped him off.
Soner Valderan: 
Dmitry Koleznev: 
Valderan was in a world of hurt as his pocket kings were drawing to just two outs as they were cracked by a flopped full house.
The river was the 
and Valderan was sent home.
James O'Brien, who was in the big blind, admittedly dodged a major bullet. "I had king-four, glad I didn't defend that one!"
