Rybin Caught

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Albert Daher
Albert Daher

Alexey Rybin, who been the chip leader at the end of every day he's played, has lost most of his chip lead in the last half an hour or so.

Rybin opened to 35,000 preflop and was called by Albert Daher in the cutoff and Kayhan Tugrul in the big blind.

The flop was {8-Spades}{J-Spades}{6-Clubs},Tugrul and Rybin checked to Daher and the latter bet 52,000. Tugrul folded but Rybin made the call to see the {7-Diamonds} on the turn. Both players now checked and the dealer put out the {6-Diamonds} on the river, Rybin led for 125,000 but Daher called fairly quickly.

The Russian mucked instantly and Daher didn't need to show his hand to win the pot.
