Pavlov Secures Double Knockout

Edward Yam moved all in from middle position for 150,000, and Iurii Kondrat followed suit in the next seat, moving his 125,000 stack across the line.

Action folded to Atanas Pavlov in the small blind, who also moved all in, covering both players and folding out the big blind.

Iurii Kondrat: 6♣6♠
Edward Yam: Q♣Q♠
Atanas Pavlov: A♥K♥

Yam looked in good shape with his queens, although he was in the classic race versus ace-king, but the K♠3♠10♣ flop put Pavlov in front with a pair of kings.

The J♥ turn made things interesting as it gave Yam an up-and-down straight draw and meant he now did not want to hit his set, but the 4♠ river was a brick and Pavlov scooped a significant pot while his opponents said their goodbyes and made for the exit.
