Yankov Inching Closer to Lead
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Krasimir Yankov raised to 400,000 from the button, and Mostafa Haidary called from the small blind. The big blind folded, leaving the players head up to the flop.
The flop came 5?7?9? and both players checked to the turn.
The turn brought the Q? and Haidary bet 375,000 which was called by Yankov.
Both players checked to showdown after the Q? completed the board on the river. Haidary tabled A?3? for ace high, but Yankov had A?8? with ace high as well, but the eight played for Yankov, and allowed him to take the pot.
