Nariman Yaghmai Eliminated in 21st Place ($21,000)
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Nariman Yaghmai was down to just 30,000 when he moved all in from the hijack. Istvan Birizdo called in the big blind.
Nariman Yaghmai: 3♠3♥
Istvan Birizdo: Q♣4♥
Birizdo picked up a flush draw going to the river on a board of J♣9♣2♣6♠, and he hit the 4♦ on the river to win the pot and send Yaghmai to the rail in 21st place.
At another table, four players saw a flop of 3♠4♦4♣ in a limped pot when Alex Kulev bet 22,000 from the button. Only Stanislau Charvinski called in the hijack.
Kulev then moved all in on the 2♠ turn, and Charvinski called for 135,000. He showed 7♠4♠ for trips, while Kulev had J♠6♠ for a flush draw. The Q♣ river was no help to Kulev, and Charvinski doubled up.
