Evegny Kurilenko has been sporting a very big stack since the start of the day staying way above average. He just crossed the million marker after a great call on Wang Meng, The hand kicked off with Kurilenko raising to 14k from the cutoff seat. Yong Bin Wang called on the button and Wang Meng from the big blind.
At the flop K♣ 3♦ J♦, Meng checked, Kurilenko c-bet 18k, Yong folded, Meng raised to 41k, and Kurilenko called. On the 5♣ turn, Meng led for 85k and Kurilenko stuck with him. On the K♠ river, Meng fired out 140k and Kurilenko called after tanking for less than a minute.
Meng had A♥ 6♥ that was no good against Kurilenko’s 9♣ 3♣ two pair. What a call with his small pair.
