Savkin Hits Set to Double Up
Level 20
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Alexander Zur Linden was seen putting in a three-bet to 45,000 from the small blind, which Tymofii Savkin Linden called on the button.
Zur Linden continued for 45,000 on the 8?A?9? flop, Savkin called after some tanking time.
The Q? turn saw Zur Linden shove all in, covering the 231,000 chips in Savkin's stack. Savkin quickly called, leaving both players to table their cards, Zur Linden doing so with a sigh.
Tymofii Savkin: 8?8? 
Alexander Zur Linden: K?K?
Zur Linden needed a king to eliminate Savkin but did not find one on the 5? and doubled him up instead.
