Flop Smacks Both Players as Fidchuk Doubles
Nivel 9
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player in the cutoff raised to 2,200 and Evgeny Fidchuk three-bet to 10,000 on the button. The small blind then four-bet to 18,500 and the cutoff got out of the way, but Fidchuk moved all in for 61,300 and the small blind snap-called.
Evgeny Fidchuk: A♠A♥ 
Opponent: J♠J♣
Fidchuk had his opponent crushed as he showed a pair of aces. The A♦ came in the window to improve him to a set, and it was followed by J♥8♦ as his opponent also made a set. The 9♦ turn also gave the small blind a flush draw, but Fidchuk held on through the 4♥ river to earn the double up.
