Sidelkovskii Gets Big Double Thanks to a Cold Deck

Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Leonid Sidelkovskii opened in middle position to 20,000 before the action folded to the big blind who asked for a count and then put in a three-bet to 75,000.
Sidelkovskii sat in the tank for a moment and then moved his last 290,000 chips into the middle. The big blind snap called.
Leonid Sidelkovskii: K?K?
Big Blind: Q?Q?
The dealer put out the K?10?5? and there was little sweat for Sidelkovskii. The 8? turn and 2? river sealed the deal and Sidelkovskii would earn a missive, much-needed double late in the day as the bubble approaches.
