Up on the feature table, Nicolas Yunis opened to 85,000 and Max Lykov reraised to 160,000 from the cutoff. Yunis called, and they saw a flop. Exciting stuff.

The {a-Hearts}{3-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop and {k-Clubs} turn were actually rather anticlimactic, both players checking. But things picked up considerably on the {q-Spades} river. Yunis checked again, but Lykov now bet 245,000. AFter a few moments' though, Yunis announced a call - but Lykov turned over {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades} for a full house and Yunis mucked his hand.

The overnight chip leader is now down to little over 700,000. Lykov is up to around 2.5 million and is gradually becoming more and more likely to become our first ever double EPT champion.
