Two Big Pairs Clash

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Tsogtjargal Yadamjav opened from early position for a slightly larger than usual 600. Oleg Bychkov was directly to his left and raised to 1,800. It quickly folded back round to Yadamjav who clarified the bet and called.

The flop was {4-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Yadamjav led out for 2,500. No quick surrender from Bychkov who called.

The turn card was the {10-Clubs} bringing four to a flush which slowed both players down before the river {3-Spades} completed the board.

Yadamjav again with the lead bet of 5,600 and Bychkov tossed out a call.

Yadamjav showed the nut flush {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts} and Bychkov showed his losing {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} giving a distasteful look to the troublesome knaves as his stack continued to head in the wrong direction.
