Yakiv Syzghanov Felted by Shalom Elharar

Level 14: 2,500 / 5,000 ante: 5,000
Yakiv Syzghanov

"Just stop leave something for everyone else please," John Perry jokes as the red hot run of Shalom Elharar continues. From being a short stack an hour ago, he doubled once and then knocks out two players. Latest casualty is Yakiv Syzghanov in spectacular fashion when two pocket pairs clash.


Syzghanov's T T are behind versus K K and it remains that way despite hitting a set on the K T 8 9 J runout.
