Taylor Leaves Kolev on Fumes; Guelpa Wakes Up With Queens to Bust Zerjav
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 8♠J♠2♣, Stuart Taylor bet 3,600 from the button and Yuliyan Kolev called in the hijack.
Both players checked the A♥ turn. The river was the 3♠ and Kolev led out for 15,000. Taylor then moved all in and Kolev, with only around 3,000 remaining, quickly folded.
At the same time at an adjacent table, Blaz Zerjav moved all in for 24,300 from the hijack and Stephane Guelpa put him at risk under the gun.
Blaz Zerjav: J♦J♣ 
Stephane Guelpa: Q♣Q♦
Zerjav had run his jacks into Guelpa's queens as the 5♦A♥A♣3♦6♠ board provided no help, sending Zerjav to the rail.
