Reijmer Eliminated, Lichtie More than Doubles, & Yakovenko Crippled

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Nikolai Yakovenko raised to 50,000 and received a call from Gregory Baksic on the button. Daniel Reijmer then moved all in from the small blind for 180,000 more, Matt Lichtie came over the top for a total of 498,000, and Yakovenko called. After Baksic got out of the way, the cards were turned up:

Yakovenko: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Reijmer: {6-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Lichtie: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

Reijmer was ahead as his supporters called for a six. The bad news was he didn't catch a six on the flop, which came {8-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}, but the good news was his pair of sixes was still best. The {4-Spades} on the turn changed nothing, but the {K-Spades} on the river gave Lichtie a pair of kings and the best hand. Reijmer's supporters quickly lost their enthusiasm as their man was eliminated from the PCA. Lichtie managed to win the pot, worth around 1.85 million, while Yakovenko was crippled and left with just 85,000 or so.
