Korenev Busts Brecard
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Roman Korenev opened to 50,000 from middle position and short-stacked Julien Brecard defended his big blind, with about 120,000 left behind.
On the J?10?9? flop, Brecard checked to his opponent. Korenev fired out a bet of 150,000, and Brecard got the rest of his chips into the middle.
Julien Brecard: Q?J? 
Roman Korenev: A?K?
Brecard was ahead with top pair jacks but still had outs to fade.
The Q? rolled off on the turn to put Korenev in front with the nut straight, and the K? river completed the board, confirming Brecard's fate.
