Ye Bests Skhulukhiya After All

Level 31 : 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Yi Ye seemingly lost almost all significant pots against Giorgiy Skhulukhiya on the final day so far but that has just changed.

Skhulukhiya raised to 320,000 first to act and Ye defended the big blind. Once both had checked the {10-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop, Ye bet the {8-Hearts} turn and {6-Spades} river for 335,000 and 485,000 respectively. Skhulukhiya called twice and mucked when Ye flipped over {8-Spades}{6-Clubs} for backdoor two pair.
