Kopyl Doubles, Leaves Skhulukhiya Short
Level 34
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya shoved from the hijack for a little over 4,000,000 and Dmitrii Kopyl committed his stack of 4,000,000 from the small blind.
Dmitrii Kopyl: K♠K♣
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: A♠Q♠
Both players had similar stacks but it was Kopyl who was at risk with his pocket kings. A flop of 6♠2♦8♦ didn't give Skhulukhiya much to work with but the 3♠ turn gave up a flush draw and a lot more outs. However, none of those outs found the river as the 5♦ completed the board, leaving Skhulukhiya very short-stacked.
