Javakhishvili Finishes Off the Start-of-Day Chip Leader
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Krasimir Yankov began the day as chip leader, but his tournament came to an end less than an hour into Day 2 after a hand against Vakhtang Javakhishvili.
On a flop of 3?6?J?, Yankov got his last 240,000 in the middle from the small blind as Javakhishvili, who barely had him covered, put him at risk on the button.
Krasimir Yankov: K?J?10?8?
Vakhtang Javakhishvili: 9?9?2?2?
Yankov was ahead with top pair, but the Q? turn gave Javakhishvili a flush and the 10? river sealed Yankov's elimination.
