Rami Ykmour Eliminated

Aleks Brkovic has just won another big pot with the elimination of Rami Ykmour. Ykmour opened to 6,000 from early position, and was called by Brkovic from the small blind.

On a flop of {A-?}{9-?}{6-?}, Brkovic checked to Ykmour who fired a continuation bet of 14,000. Brkovic made the call.

On the turn, {Q-Clubs}, Brkovic checked again and this time, Ykmour bet 25,000. Brkovic then put Ykmour to a decision for all of his chips, and Ykmour made the call, tabling the {9-?}{9-?}. Amazingly, he was behind the slow-played {A-?}{A-?} of Brkovic.

The river blanked meaning Ykmour would be eliminated from the tournament and Brkovic would race up to 450,000 in chips, now in contention for the chip lead.
