Tsakov Stacks Taylor
Level 20
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
During the last five hands of the night, Thomas Taylor and Petko Tsakov clashed in an all-in pot when Taylor raised from the hijack to 100,000 and was re-raised by Tsakov to 360,000. Taylor called to see a flop.
The flop fanned out A♦K♥5♦. Taylor checked, and Tsakov bet 700,000 to put Taylor all-in. Taylor called to go to a showdown.
Thomas Taylor: K♦Q♥J♦2♥
Petko Tsakov: A♠A♣10♣3♠
Taylor had a straight draw and a flush draw, but none of his outs appeared when the turn came 8♥ and the river came 3♣ to send Taylor out of the tournament during the twilight of Day 2.
