Level 29 : Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante

Action started with an open from the cutoff by Nikolay Yosifov. All other players folded except Uri Reichenstein, who was in the big blind and called.

The flop 6♦10♦8♠ got checked around.

The turn was the J♣. Reichenstein bet a bit over the pot, 800,000 chips. Yosifov called.

The river was the 9♥. Reichenstein bet 1,750,000 chips, which got quickly called.

Reichenstein showed K♦9♦ for a flopped flush draw and gutshot and a rivered pair of nines. Yosifov turned over Q♣Q♦, which was good all along, but made an even stronger hand, a straight, on the river.

Nikolay Yosifov	7,350,000 2,150,000	2,150,000
