Balogh Double Leaves Koleno on the Ropes

Level 37
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Stanislav Koleno pushed all-in from the small blind and Andras Balogh called for the seven million he had behind, fewer than 12 big blinds at that stage.
Andras Balogh: A?J?
Stanislav Koleno: 2?2?
On the K?K?8? flop, Balogh asked for an eight but was as happy about the A? turn. His eight came on the 8? river to secure the double-up.
