Dota, Minkov Take Turns Doubling
Victor Dota raised to 280,000 in the cutoff and Nikola Minkov called in the big blind. "Let's see a flop," Minkov said as they saw the board come K?Q?6?. Dota then moved all in for 650,000. "That's a good flop for my hand," Minkov said as he called.
Victor Dota: A?K?Q?J? 
Nikola Minkov: A?10?7?6?
"You don't want to hit your jack," Jonas Kronwitter told Dota who was ahead with top two pair. The rest of the board came 2?7? and Dota doubled up.
"You're hard to kill," Kronwitter added after the hand.
The next hand, Dennis Weiss raised to 280,000, Minkov shoved for 435,000, and Weiss called.
Nikola Minkov: Q?Q?10?8?
Dennis Weiss: J?J?10?8?
"I really don't want to see that hand," Weiss said when Minkov turned over his queens. Minkov hit a set on the K?10?Q? flop, while the 7? turn and 6? river sealed his double up.
