Iakovlev Wins Despite "Very Bad River"
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 7?4?6? and about 60,000 in the middle, Giorgiy Skhulukhiya bet 17,000 and was called by Michael Iakovlev on the button.
On the K? turn Skhulukhiya fired another barrel for 45,000 and was once again called by his opponent.
Skhulukhiya burned through two time banks before checking the 5? river.
"Very bad river" Iakovlev told his opponent before checking behind.
"You win" Skhulukhiya replied.
"Of course I win" Iakovlev said before tabling A?A? for an overpair to take the pot.
