[user66118]

Iliya Gorodetskiy opened with a raise to 16,000, and Menno Mulder moved all in for about 45,000 total. When it came back to Gorodetskiy, he quickly made the call to put his opponent at risk.

Showdown
Gorodetskiy: {9-Clubs}

Mulder:

The flop was no help to Mulder as it came {7-Hearts}

. He would pair up on the turn, but it was the worst card in the deck as the {J-Hearts}

gave Gorodetskiy the straight with the flush draw to go along. A blank {5-Spades}

on the river was all she wrote for Menno Mulder, ending his day in 30th place. Mulder did well this week, turning an online satellite entry into a respectable €8,600.
