Dichev Flops the Nuts to Bust Zhugralin

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Yasen Dichev
Yasen Dichev

On the first hand of the day, Justus Held raised to 20,000 in early position and received calls from Viliyan Petleshkov in middle position and cutoff Yasen Dichev. Damir Zhugralin then moved all in for 140,000 on the button and only Dichev called.

Damir Zhugralin: Q?Q?
Yasen Dichev: J?10?

Zhugralin was well ahead with his queens and spiked the Q? in the window to improve to a set, but it was followed by A?K? as Dichev flopped a straight. The board ran out 8?9? and Zhugralin was sent to a quick exit on Day 3.
