Yalciner Misses the Two Million Mark
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Under the gun, Roman Ialovega shoved for 115,000. He was called by Azizjon Rakhimov in the hijack. After a few seconds, Metin Yalciner in the big blind decided to three-bet to 260,000. Immediately, Rakhimov moved all in for 780,000.
Disgusted, Yalciner asked for the count and eventually folded, revealing 10♥10♣.
Roman Ialovega: 6♠6♣
Azizjon Rakhimov: A♦K♥
As a spectator, Yalciner saw the dealer fan a board of 7♥J♦2♣7♣Q♣. He would have won the hand and climbed above 2,000,000 chips if he had called. Instead of that, Ialovega tripled up.
