Mikhail Yakovlev Eliminated in 7th Place ($102,870)

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Mikhail Yakovkev - 7th place
Mikhail Yakovkev - 7th place

In second position, Mikhail Yakovlev moved all in for his final 190,000. Action made its way without a competing player to Vanessa Peng in the big blind and she made the call to put Yakovlev at risk.

Yakovlev: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Peng: {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}

The flop was {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and gave Peng top pair but left Yakovlev with an inside straight draw and some hope. The turn was the {2-Diamonds} which gave Peng two pair but still left Yakovlev searching for a jack. It was not to be though. The river was the {6-Clubs} and Yakovlev just couldn't find any luck at today's final table. Peng, however, is using hers to stack up 1.85 million in chips.
