World Cup of PokerStars

Alex Kravchenko

There was an international battle over on Table 15 in the Pavilion Room with representatives from Netherlands, Russia and Canada.

PokerStars Team Russia representative Alexander Kravchenko raised from under the gun and was called by PokerStars Team Netherlands' Lex "RaSZi" Veldhuis on the button, Canadian Erik Cajelais in the small blind and an unknown player in the big blind.

The flop fell {K-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{7-Hearts} and everybody checked to Veldhuis who bet. Only Cajelais and Kravchenko called.

All three players checked both the {10-Diamonds} turn and {Q-Clubs} river.

Cajelais tabled {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a pair of sevens, Kravchenk opened {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for a better pair and Veldhuis opted to muck.

Kravchenko was shipped the pot, and this is how all three stacks look:

Kravchenko - 4,800 chips
Cajelais - 9,200 chips
Veldhuis - 35,000 chips
