Renat Bohdanov raised from under the gun and Rachid El Yaacoubi defended out of the big blind. On a flop of 
, El Yaacoubi checked his option for Bohdanov to bet 47,000 and the Frenchman check-raised to 152,000. Bohdanov called and the 
followed on the turn.
El Yaacoubi pushed all-in for 372,000 and Bohdanov immediately glanced at his table neighbour. Some thirty seconds passed as the WSOP Europe bracelet winner mulled it over and then splashed in calling chips.

and the 
river further improved his hand to a straight, bursting the money bubble.
