Oh Boyko! A Double-Up!
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Cheng Chen had opened from the hijack when Yuriy Boyko piled in his 415,000 from the small blind. Chen looked his opponent up with the covering stack, revealing the cards.
Yuriy Boyko: A♦2♦
Cheng Chen: K♦Q♠
Chen flopped a gutshot on 7♥10♠9♣, but Boyko's ace-high remained the best hand on the 7♠5♣ runout, doubling him up.
