Tkachuk Sends Metelskiy To the Rail

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante

On the heads-up turn in a battle of the blinds, Artem Tkachuk check-called a bet of 3,000 by Artem Metelskiy on the {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{9-Spades} turn and checked again the {2-Hearts} on the river. Metelskiy moved all in for just over 10,000 and Tkachuk snap-called to get shown the {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for the busted nut flush draw and two pair on the river.

Tkachuk had that beat with {j-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for jacks and nines to scoop the pot. Egor Sukhov has also been eliminated early on Day 1c as well.

Mityaev To The Top

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante
Ruslan Mityaev
Ruslan Mityaev

Andrey Osipov ended up all in for 23,100 before the flop as did Artem Lukyanov for more than double of that, and Ruslan Mityaev had both covered in the three-way all in which included a six-bet jam and call.

Andrey Osipov: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Artem Lukyanov: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Ruslan Mityaev: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

The board came {9-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts} and that secured the double knockout and lead for Mityaev.

Yernat Tumanshiyev
Yernat Tumanshiyev

With 9,200 in the middle and the flop showing {q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Artem Zopunyan check-raised from 5,000 to 15,100 and Yernat Tumanshiyev on the button pushed all in. Zopunyan had some 39,000 total at his disposal and made the call.

Artem Zopunyan: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Yernat Tumanshiyev: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The {9-Diamonds} turn and {9-Hearts} river provided no help and that sent Zopunyan to the rail.
