Bustouts Begin in Earnest; Boatman Chips Up

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

There have been a flurry of eliminations from THE COLOSSUS including third-place finisher in Event #2: €550 Pot-Limit Omaha Georgios Zisimopoulos as well as Stanislav Koleno, who suffered that brutal bad beat on the direct money bubble.

There was an all-in and a call at Barny Boatman's table, and he was up against Belgian Cheng-Wei Yin.

Barny Boatman: {a-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Cheng-Wei Yin: {a-Diamonds}{8-Spades}

The board ran out {6-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and despite the dealer waggling Yin's Ace of diamonds on the turn, the river was a blank and Boatman's Ace-high was good enough to take down the pot and eliminate his opponent.
