Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Christopher Nguyen opened to 30,000 second to act before Boris Tabiyev three-bet to 80,000 from the button. Eleftherios Sinnos four-bet to 255,000 from the big blind and folded out both players.

On the next deal, Nguyen made it 30,000 once more, prompting Tabiyev to bump it to 80,000 for a consecutive hand. Guillermo Gordo cold-called from the big blind, and Nguyen stuck around.

Tabiyev continued for 85,000 on the J♥9♠6♠ flop and Nguyen was the only caller. The J♣ came in on the turn and Nguyen led out for 300,000. Tabiyev quickly raised to 850,000, leaving 70,000 behind, Nguyen jammed as the slightly bigger stack and Tabiyev snap-called.

Boris Tabiyev: 9♣9♦ All in
Christopher Nguyen: K♣J♠

Nguyen turned trip jacks but remained behind as Tabiyev saw his set improve to a full house. The 7♣ river confirmed the checkmark for Tabiyev and he left Nguyen on fumes in the early goings.

With around 100,000 chips already in the middle on a flop of 4♦4♣A♥, Radoslav Stoyanov fired 30,000, and Chakib Mhiri called.
