Boyko Binks a Sweet Double
Level 21
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Christopher Day raised to 35,000 and Guillem Cusco Bach as well as one further player called. In the big blind, Yuriy Boyko then made it 122,000 to go from the big blind and Day moved all in. Cusco Bach and the other player folded and Boyko tank-called for his tournament life.
Yuriy Boyko: 
Christopher Day: 
The 
flop gave Day top pair, but the 
on the turn restored the preflop order. Boyko needed to avoid a queen, and he did so after a blank 
river. The double of the Irishman was for 397,000 while Day dropped to less than that.
