Alexander Orlov

After a long stretch with few showdowns and no seven-digit pots, Alexander Orlov decided to make a stand. Paul Snead opened to 125,000 from the button and Orlov moved all in for 580,000. Snead asked for a count and called.

Orlov: Ac4h
Snead: Qd9h

Orlov was ahead for a double but needed to fade the two suited live cards. The 8h8c8s flop changed nothing and Orlov had his double after the Kd turn and Td river.

Alexander Orlov – 1,280,000 (21 bb)
Paul Snead – 2,975,000 (50 bb)
