Yasyuchenya Runs Into Aces
On the feature table, Yossi Eluz opened to 50,000 from under the gun. He was called by Milos Petakovic seated on his left, and by Elena Yasyuchenya in the big blind.
All three of them saw a 3♠2♠5♦ flop. Eluz bet 80,000 more chips. Petakovic called, but Yasyuchenya check-raised to 225,000. Eluz quickly folded. Petakovic took more time to make a decision, but eventually called.
On the turn, Yasyuchenya moved all in for 540,000 chips, and Petakovic called with only 455,000 chips.
Milos Petakovic: A♠A♣
Elena Yasyuchenya: 9♥4♣
Yasyuchenya tried to apply pressure with her pair, but she ran into aces that completed a straight for Petakovic. Yasyuchenya was already drawing dead on the turn, so the river 10♦ didn't change anything. Petakovic doubled up to 1,600,000, while Yasyuchenya has only 85,000 chips left.
