Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Nikolay Komcharokov opened the action with a raise to 25,000 and Ivan Luca three-bet to 55,000 from one seat over. The Russian called and they headed to the flop of ?

. Komcharokov bet 45,000 and Luca raised to 107,000. The Russian asked the dealer for the exact raising amount, took some more time to make his decision and then announced a raise: "300". With a very heavy Russian accent.
While sliding forward the stacks of T-5,000 chips, his hands were very shake but nonetheless it worked as Luca mucked his cards. Komcharokov becomes the first player above one million in chips.
