Sharma Takes Some Off Metalidi

Level 31 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante

Artem Metalidi raised to 450,000 from late position and was called by Nishant Sharma from one seat over in the hijack. Metalidi checked the {Q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades} flop and called a bet of 525,000 by Sharma. On the {2-Clubs} turn, Metalidi checked once more and faced a bet worth 1,300,000.

Metalidi glanced at the stack of his opponent and called. Both then checked the {5-Spades} on the river and Metalidi turned over {Q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for top pair. Sharma held the better kicker with the {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and claimed the pot, putting a small dent into Metalidi's big stack.
