Ahuja Finds Seven as Yanchek Exits
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Jeffrey Yanchek opened to 20,000 on the button before Ankit Ahuja pushed out enough chips to put Yanchek all-in. Yanchek practically beat Ahuja into the pot to put himself at risk for approximately 122,000.
Jeffrey Yanchek: K♠K♣
Ankit Ahuja: 7♠7♦
Yanchek enjoyed a big lead going into the flop, but that feeling of optimism was short-lived when the dealer fanned the flop 5♣Q♠7♦ to give Ahuja a set.
The 8♠ turn, and the 2♥ river completed the board to award the pot to Ahuja, as all Yanchek could do was stand up and leave the tournament area.
