Huge Double for Iakovlev as he Dodges the World

Level 8 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Michael Iakovlev

Samy Barka opened 20,000 under the gun, and Michael Iakovlev three-bet to 70,000 in the hijack. Barka made the call.

The dealer fanned a flop of 988, and Barka check-raised the bet of 42,000 to 500,000. Iakovlev went into the tank, checking his cards multiple times, and after using a time bank, he announced all-in for 606,000. Barka snap-called and both hands were tabled.

Michael Iakovlev: QQ All in
Samy Barka: 76

Iakovlev was looking to dodge a ton of outs as Barka flopped an open-ended straight flush draw. The Q turn improved Iakovlev to a full house though, leaving Barka with just two remaining outs, and the 2 river wasn't one of them.
