Boika Takes Last Hand
Level 28
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Mykhailo Ostash raised to 250,000 from the small blind and Aliaksei Boika defended his big blind to see the 8♦6♣4♣ flop. Both players checked, and the 5♦ arrived on the turn. Ostash bet 180,000 and Boika called.
The 7♣ completed the board with an eight-high straight showing. Ostash fired out 900,000 into a pot of 1,840,000, and Boika quickly called.
Ostash tabled Q♥5♠ and played the board, but Boika had 9♣8♥ for a nine-high straight to take in the final pot of Day 5.
With that, the five players are bagging and tagging their stacks. Recap and chip counts to follow.
