Yuriy Boyko Flips For His Tournament Life

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Yuriy Boyko was short and got his remaining 174,000 in the middle before the flop. Jimmy Tran was also short and called.

Boyko tabled {a-Spades}{j-Hearts} and was flipping against Tran's {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}.

The flop came {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, allowing Boyko to pull ahead with a pair of aces. The turn was the {4-Hearts} and the river was the {3-Spades}, giving Boyko the double-up he was looking for and leaving Tran with less than five big blinds.
