Yacoub Flushes Out Litvinov
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
On a flop of Q♠5♣K♣, Andrey Litvinov had shoved around 27,000 and been called by both Georges Ghossan and Dori Yacoub.
A 10♣ dropped on the turn and after Ghossan checked, Yacoub fired 25,000, which was enough to make Ghossan fold.
Andrey Litvinov: 5♠5♦
Dori Yacoub: Q♣J♣
Litvinov had flopped a set, but Yacoub turned a flush to take the lead. A board-pairing river is what Litvinov needed to survive, but he couldn't find it as the 6♥ completed the runout.
