Linke, Bayout Exchange Raises; Yakimov Busts to Necas With a Set
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Enrico Linke and Axel Bayout built a pot of around 400,000 as they went heads-up to the turn on a board of K♥5♣K♣2♦. Linke then bet 105,000 from the small blind and Bayout raised to 225,000 on the button.
Linke came back with a reraise to 550,000 and Bayout quickly folded. Linke showed A♦J♣ for just ace-high as he took the pot.
At another table, Ondrej Necas moved all in from the cutoff and Plamen Yakimov called for his last 500,000 in the big blind.
Plamen Yakimov: 6♣6♦ 
Ondrej Necas: A♣Q♣
Yakimov made a set on the K♣10♣6♠ flop, while Necas picked up straight and flush draws. The 5♣ turn completed Necas' flush, while the A♠ river sent Yakimov off to the payout desk.
