Vekshin Rivers a Straight

Level 13 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Timofei Vekshin check-raised from 35,000 to 80,000 with about 50,000 in the pot with the {9-Clubs}{a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{8-Spades} on the board and Chadi Haddad called.

Vekshin then fired out for 130,000 with about the same amount behind after the {k-Spades} completed the board on the river. Haddad went into the tank for three minutes before he made the call.

Vekshin turned over {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a straight and the dealer shipped him the pot after Haddad mucked his hand.

Meanwhile, around the same time, Michail Tastanis was eliminated from the Day 1a field.

Cinitas Gets Lucky Against Golubev

Level 13 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Bariskaan Cinitas checked with about 80,000 in the pot and the {2-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs} on the board. Andrey Golubev jammed more than covering the around 110,000 Cinitas had left in his stack and got a call.

Andrey Golubev: {10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}
Bariskaan Cinitas: {j-Spades}{8-Spades}

Golubev was well ahead with a flush but there was still one card to come. The {7-Spades} completed the board on the river to get Cinitas a full house and a double up.

Meanwhile, Dmitrii Belikov and Karolis Sereika were eliminated at other tables.

Golobev Eliminated

Level 14 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

David Verdal opened from under the gun for 17,000. Mohammed Razkouallah called from two seats over before Andrey Golubev called off his short stack of around 15,000. Roman Nuraev completed the action from the big blind and the {j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Clubs} came on the flop.

Nuraev checked before Verdal fired out a bet of 25,000. Razkouallah and Nuraev got out of the way. Verdal turned over {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for top pair and a flush draw and Golubev was drawing thin with {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}.

Neither the {q-Diamonds} on the turn nor the {3-Diamonds} on the river were able to save Golubev and he was ousted before the money. Also recently eliminated were Ercan Olgun and Alejandro Gomez.
