Yildiz Double Leaves Covrig on the Ropes
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
With the cards already exposed on a board of 9♣5♦2♣10♥8♣, the stacks were counted for Ercan Yildiz and Sergiu Covrig. The former had flopped two pair with the 9♥5♥ but saw his stack diminished to crumbs, as Yildiz' 10♣7♣ had rivered a flush.
Yildiz doubled for 121,000 and Covrig headed into the break with just a handful of big blinds at his disposal.
