Gha Iakobishvili Eliminated in 9th Place ($145,000)
Level 19
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Gha Iakobishvili put in his last 95,000 under the gun and Thomas Muehloecker raised to 250,000 in middle position. Tom Vogelsang then reraised to 700,000 in the hijack, and Muehloecker folded A♥8♥.
Gha Iakobishvili: K♣J♦
Tom Vogelsang: A♦K♠
Iakobishvili was dominated and at risk as the 9♠8♠4♠ flop gave Vogelsang a bigger lead with a flush draw. The 6♦ turn left Iakobishvili with just two outs going to the river, and no miracles arrived on the 10♠ as he was sent to the rail in ninth place, but not before recording his third final table appearance in as many events this festival.
