Hand #209: Dimitar Danchev raised to 50,000 from the button only to have Alex Bolotin three-bet to 150,000 from the big blind. Danchev paused for a few moments before making the call as the dealer spread a 
flop.
Bolotin continued for 175,000 with Danchev make a rather quick call as the 
landed on the turn and Bolotin checked to the Bulgarian. Danchev paused, and then cut out a bet of 236,000 which Bolotin called before the dealer delivered the 
on the river and Bolotin checked once more.
Danchev looked down at his stack, and then announced he was all in with Bolotin quickly asking for a count. The dealer cut down Danchev's stack and it amounted to 594,000. Bolotin removed his hood and sunglasses went deep into the tank for close to two minutes before announcing a call.
Danchev flipped over his 
for a queen-high bluff as Bolotin tabled his 
for top pair and the bracelet as Danchev was left to take 2nd place and the $160,410 in prizemoney.
