Priestley Knocks Out Yildizhan
Level 3
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Dmitry Gromov opened to 2,000 under the gun and was called by Sinead Priestley in early position. A player in the hijack three-bet to 8,000 before Ekin Yildizhan four-bet shoved for just over 25,000. Gromov got out of the way before Priestley, who covered Yildizhan slightly, moved all in, forcing out the player in the hijack and putting Yildizhan at risk.
Ekin Yildizhan: 7♣7♦
Sinead Priestley: 10♦10♥
Priestley was in excellent shape with the bigger pocket pair and remained ahead on the 5♥3♥9♠Q♦K♥ runout to secure more than a full double up while Yildizhan made his exit from the tournament area.
