Skhulukhiya Sends Two to the Rail
Level 13
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Elena Yasyuchenya raised to 6,000 from early position before Akin Tuna shoved from the next seat for roughly 40,000. Giorgiy Skhulukhiya called and then snap-called when Yasyuchenya shoved all in for 220,000. The cards were flipped over with Skhulukhiya having the chance to bust two players.
Akin Tuna: J♥J♣ 
Elena Yasyuchenya: A♠Q♦
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: K♦K♥
Skhulukhiya was ahead with his cowboys and that didn't change on the 9♦10♦2♠ flop. The Q♥ turn improved every player in some way, but the board-pairing 9♠ on the river meant Skhulukhiya scored the double knockout.
