Russian Power

Vladimir Shchemelev raised to 700 from middle position. He was welcomed with two callers before the flop came down {K-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. Shchemelev bet 1,000 after the flop and only one of the players called.

Fourth street brought the {7-Clubs} and both players checked to see the {9-Clubs} fall on the river. Shchemelev check-raised a bet of 1,600 from his opponent to a nice-and-juicy 11,000. His opponent tossed his hand into the muck and Shchemelev scooped the pot to move to 45,000 in chips.
