Qualifier Sorokin Scoops; Kakhmazov Not Dented

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

PokerStars online qualifier Viktor Sorokin just picked up a healthy pot, eliminating one opponent and picking up a few chips from top-stack Nadar Kakhmazov.

Kakhmazov had opened preflop to 2,000. Action folded around to the player in the small blind who moved all-in for just 300 more. Sorkokin, sitting in the big blind, bumped it up to 8,300 and Kakhmazov called.

The flop came {a-Spades}{7-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and both players checked to the {k-Spades} on the turn. Sorokin fired out 11,000 and Kakhmazov folded.

Small Blind: {3-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Sorokin: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

Sorokin held the nuts, leaving his opponent drawing dead and the meaningless {5-Hearts} on the river just delayed Sorokin getting pushed the pot.
