Nikolai Yakovenko Eliminated in 4th Place ($73,776)

Limit Hold'em

Steve Sung and Nikolai Yakovenko got into a ton of preflop betting in action that would lead to Yakovenko's elimination.

Sung started it out by raising from the button with Yakovenko re-raising from the small blind. Sung four-bet and Yakovenko then five-bet all in with Sung calling.

Sung: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Yakovenko: {a-Clubs}{6-Hearts}

The flop came {4-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Sung kept his place in the lead. With the {6-Hearts} on the turn, Yakovenko managed to get both flush and straight draws. However, neither of them hit when the {8-Diamonds} came on the river.

We're now taking a twenty-minute break before resuming play three-handed.
