Skhulukhiya Turns a Straight to Eliminate Nakdali
Level 9
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Three ways to a flop of 7♠J♦8♠ where Kenar checked from the big blind, and Yaman Nakdali shoved from under the gun for roughly 81,000. Giorgiy Skhulukhiya moved in from the hijack, which forced Kenar to fold.
Yaman Nakdali: K♦K♥ 
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: J♥10♥
Nadali had the overpair, against the top pair and a gutshot straight draw of Skhulukhiya.
Skhulukhiya received instant service on the 9♥ turn by improving to a straight. Nakdali couldn't find a nine on the river to chop the pot as the 6♥ completed the runout, and Skhulukhiya was sent the pot.
