Shmerling Busts Two
Level 8
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
The full action until the 
river is unclear, but the outcome saw Nissim Alfassi and Aleksandr Lebedev heading to the rail after Yossef Shmuel Shmerling showed 
for a full house. Alfassi had mucked his cards already and Lebedev held 
for tens and sixes.
Shmerling has just shy of 200,000 chips now and becomes a contender for the lead after Day 1b.
