More for Shaykhov

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Irshat Shaykhov
Irshat Shaykhov

Vladislav Vinogradov raised to 2,000 in the hijack and picked up two callers in Irshat Shaykhov in the cutoff as well as the small blind, Kiryl Radzivonau in the big blind let go.

On a {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop, action checked to Shaykhov and a bet of 4,000 did the trick to let the Russian climb back to an almost average stack on his second bullet of the day.

Volkov Eliminated

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Soon after losing the big three-way all in, Oleg Volkov three-bet jammed for around 13 big blinds and initial raiser Konstantin Streltskiy called in an instant.

Oleg Volkov: {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Konstantin Streletskiy: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

It was all over for Volkov on the turn of a board {j-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{q-Diamonds} and he was on the way out by the time Streletskiy had further improved to the nutflush.

Andreev Takes Aother Hit

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Aleksey Badulin was all in for the last 35,000 against Andrey Andreev and his {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} were ahead going into the showdown, as Andreev only held the {a-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

Andreev picked up a gutshot on the {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop but the {5-Spades} turn and {4-Clubs} river were both blanks.

Fal Eliminated in Three-Way All In

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Nikolay Fal
Nikolay Fal

Nikolay Fal was all in or around 20 big blinds and behind him, two big stacks went to war in Oleg Volkov and Roman Gadzhiev. The latter former was the biggest stack of the trio and could end up in the top spot if he were to hold with his pocket pair.

Nikolay Fal: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Roman Gadzhiev: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Oleg Volkov: {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

The board came {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades} and the king on the flop let Gadzhiev double through Fal for 75,900 while sending Fal to the rail.

Kukin Busts Levin

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Aleksandr Gofman raised to 2,300 and Aleksey Levin moved all in for 12,100. Mikhail Kukin flat-called and that got Gofman out of the way.

Aleksey Levin: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Mikhail Kukin: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

The {9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{10-Spades} board failed to improve Levin and he was sent to the rail.
