After a raise to 1,800 from early position, it was Eugene Katchalov making the call on the button. Mike Neuens in the small blind made the call as well, then Yury Gulyy in the big blind squeezed to 7,200. The initial raiser made the call and so did Eugene Katchalov for 7,200 each.
With so much already in the middle, small blind Neuens then resqueezed all in for (what we think was) 22,800. Gulyy shoved over the top for 34,800 and the initial raiser folded. Eugene Katchalov thought about it for some time before eventually calling as well.

Things were looking good for Katchalov after the flop. The on the turn was also as safe a card as could come for him. But the on the river wasn't good for the Team PokerStars Pro. Neuens tripled up while Gulyy busted. Katchalov received the 24,000 in the side pot so didn't lose all that much in the end.
The next hand Katchalov won a 20,000 pot to get back to even. Katchalov opened from the cutoff and the big blind came along. The big blind check called Katchalov's 2,300 bet on and both players checked the on the turn. The big blind bet out 4,800 on the river and Katchalov called after some hefty thinking. The big blind mucked, Katchalov did the same after receiving the pot.
