Yuval Bronshtein Eliminated in 6th Place (£14,438)

[user25067]

Hand #58:

Bronshtein: 2-9-3-2
Bihl: 3-K-5-A

On fourth street Bronshtein led out and Bihl called. On fifth it was the same story-- Bronshtein bet and Bihl called. Come sixth street, Bihl had the low hand showing once Bronshtein paired his deuce,and check-raised Bronshtein's bet. Bronshtein called. After seventh street fell, Bihl bet out, and Bronshtein, looking positively tortured, called all in. Bihl turned over 8-7-5-3-A, besting Bronshtein's 9-5-4-3-2, winning the pot and eliminating Bronshtein in 6th place. The young Atlanta native will take home £ 14,438 for his efforts here in London.
