Bechrakis Sends Boatman to the Rail
Nivel 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Evangelos Bechrakis opened the action from middle position to 1,600, and both Emmanuel Rouvet and Barny Boatman called. Lukas Lukac then put out a three-bet of 5,000 from the small blind, and all of his opponents called.
The flop came 2♣J♠9♥, and action was checked to Rouvet, who announced all in for 12,000. Boatman moved all in as well for 18,000, and Lukac folded. Bechrakis took his time but eventually made the call.
Emmanuel Rouvet: 3♠2♠ 
Barny Boatman: K♣Q♦
Evangelos Bechrakis: Q♠9♠
Bechrakis’ pair of nines held up after the 8♣ and 5♣ runout, eliminating both Rouvet and Boatman. Bechrakis now has the honor of busting an EPT champion.
