Yankov Eliminated, El Asmar Nearing Seven Figures After Set Over Set
Level 8
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Hady El Asmar raised to 15,000 in the hijack. Luka Sorainen and Krasimir Yankov called in the blinds, and the 2♦J♣10♣ flop was fanned.
It checked to El Asmar, who continued with a bet of 17,000. Sorainen called before Yankov raised to 58,000. El Asmar then three-bet to 200,000, folding out Sorainen.
However, Yankov wanted to play for his stack and jammed for 387,000. El Asmar immediately called.
Krasimir Yankov: 2♠2♥
Hady El Asmar: 10♠10♥
Yankov had just one out against El Asmar's higher set. The final deuce did not appear on the 6♠ turn or J♥ river, awarding El Asmar the big pot and sending Yankov to the rail.
