Hand #58 - Raymond Rahme has the button in seat 1, Alex Kravchenko moves all in from the small blind, and once his chips is counted down (4.39 million), Jerry Yang calls from the big blind.

Kravchenko shows {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, and Yang shows {J-Hearts}{10-Clubs}. Kravchenko is in a dominant position to double up here.

The flop comes {8-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, and Kravchenko retains the lead with his ace.

The turn card is the {8-Diamonds}, and Yang needs a jack to bust Kravchenko here.

The river card is the {2-Hearts}, and the Russians cheer from the stands as Alex Kravchenko doubles up with his ace high to 9.78 million.
