Stoyan Obreshkov

Stoyan Obreshkov opened to 5,000 from under the gun before Rui Bouquet made it 15,000 from middle position. Marco Regonaschi called from the small blind which prompted Obreshkov to jam for 91,500. Bouquet, who started the hand with 87,500, called for his tournament life while Regonaschi folded.

Rui Bouquet: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Stoyan Obreshkov: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Obreshkov leapfrogged into the lead, making two pair on the {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop. The {10-Clubs} turn gave Bouquet outs to the straight but he didn't need it as the {k-Diamonds} river gave him a superior two pair for the double up.

Obreshkov was left with 4,000 and found a triple up in the next hand but was eliminated shortly after.
