Raka Saved, Then Eliminated
Level 10
: Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Veton Raka and Yehor Shumeiko were heads up on a board showing 10?7?8? and all of Raka's chips in the middle.
Veton Raka: 9?7?
Yehor Shumeiko: J?9?
Raka frustratedly stood as he saw his flopped straight sit second best to Shumeiko's jack-high straight. The K? turn left Raka trailing, but the J? river left both players with the same hand as Raka was saved by the chop.
A short while later though, the rest of Raka's stack was gone as he hit the rail.
