Tanuri Sends Bozhkov Back to "Kindergarten"

Level 5 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Ionel Anton three-bet to 10,000 as action folded to Leonid Bozhkov in middle position who tanked for around 45 seconds until a player called the clock.

"He's 18. He's allowed to take time," Anton said about the youthful-looking Bozhkov.

"He's 15," Naji Tanuri joked.

Bozhkov eventually moved all in for around 70,000 and Tanuri reshoved from under the gun. Anton folded.

Leonid Bozhkov: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Naji Tanuri: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

Both players ended up making a flush on the {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} board, but Tanuri's king-high beat Bozhkov's queen to send him to the rail.

"Look out, kindergarten. He's coming back," Anton said as the table shared a laugh. Bozhkov handed back his ID ticket on his way to the exit.

"Give it to child services," Anton continued.
