Van Luijk's New Life Short-Lived; Eliminated by Zabrodotskyi

Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Yurii Zabrodotskyi raised to 25,000 on the button and was called by Derk van Luijk in the big blind. On the A?10?8? flop, Van Luijk checked and Zabrodotskyi bet 25,000.
The 2024 EPT Monte Carlo Main Event champ then check-raised all in for about 240,000. Zabrodotskyi called and the PokerStars TV cameras gathered again to record van Luijk's fate.
Derk van Luijk: K?9?
Yurii Zabrodotskyi: 10?10?
Zabrodotskyi was ahead with his set of tens, but Van Luijk was drawing to a flush.
The Q? turn changed nothing and the 9? river ended Van Luijk's day just minutes after he had doubled up.
