Boiko Eliminates Montrimas in Two Hands

Level 6 : 200/500, 500 ante

Tomas Montrimas raised it up from under the gun and Iaroslav Boiko re-raised to 3,500 in the small blind. Montrimas called and the flop fell {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. Boiko led out for 2,500 and Montrimas called.

The turn was the {6-Spades} and both players checked to the {a-Clubs} on the river. Boiko fired out another 2,500 and Montrimas quickly called. Boiko showed {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} and Montrimas conceded.

In the next hand, Kenny Hallaert opened to 1,200 in the hijack and Boiko three-bet to 3,500 on the button. Montrimas shoved all in for 10,800 in the big blind which got Hallaert to fold but Boiko called.

Montrimas was ahead with his {a-Spades}{q-Spades} but Boiko held two live cards with {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. The flop of {10-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs} put Boiko in the lead with a pair of tens and Montrimas was unable to catch up on the {6-Diamonds} and {7-Diamonds} runout.
