Kovtunov Spins Way To Huge Stack

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Hlib Kovtunov moved all in over a three-bet from Bradley Rogoff preflop and Rogoff took a moment before he called.

Hlib Kovtunov: {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}
Bradley Rogoff: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}

The board ran out {8-Spades}{k-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} and Kovtunov gathered a big double.

The very next hand Kvtunov re-shoved over the shove from Yitshak Shitrit, a third player in the hand folded {a-}{k-} face up.

Yitshak Shitrit: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Hlib Kovtunov: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{k-Spades} to eliminate Shitrik as the player who folded ace-king rued his decision and Kovtunov suddenly found himself with one of the largest stacks in the room.
