Skhulukhiya Snaps Off Jachimavicius to Take Chip Lead
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Justinas Jachimavicius three-bet to 22,000 in the small blind and was called by both Zaid Noori in early position and Giorgiy Skhulukhiya in middle position.
The flop came 4♣4♠5♥ and Jachimavicius moved all in for 52,000. Noori folded, but Skhulukhiya quickly called.
Justinas Jachimavicius: A♥Q♦
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: 3♣3♥
Jachimavicius needed to improve his ace-high as the 6♣ fell on the turn. The 2♣ came on the river and Skhulukhiya improved to a straight to send Jachimavicius to the rail and his stack past 500,000.
