Yaghmai Takes it at Showdown
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Nariman Yaghmai opened 6,000 in middle position, and both Umberto Ruggeri and Dzmitry Urbanovich came along from the blinds.
All three players checked to the 10♠9♠4♦6♦ turn, where Ruggeri led for 8,000. Urbanovich folded, and Yaghmai made the call.
When the K♠ landed on the river, Ruggeri checked and Yaghmai checked-back. Ruggeri rolled 8♠8♦ for a pair of eights, but was quickly shown it was no good as Yaghmai tabled A♦9♣ for a pair of nines.
