Yankov Trap Goes Unrewarded
Level 11
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
With a raise to 25,000 ahead of him, Krasimir Yankov called on the button. Alexey Borovkov then three-bet jammed from the big blind. The original raiser folded, but Yankov quickly called.
Once the stacks were counted, Yankov had 502,000, and Borovkov had just a few thousand more, meaning it was Yankov at risk.
Krasimir Yankov: K♠K♥ 
Alexey Borovkov: 9♥9♦
Yankov's trap had worked perfectly, but it went unrewarded, as the dealer spread a Q♠9♠3♠ flop, improving Borovkov to a set. Yankov had flopped a flush draw, but it came to nothing, as the A♥ and 2♣ completed the board, and Yankov's full stack moved across the table to Borovkov.
