Iwanov-Petkin Finds a Lucky Turn
One of the players from Table 18 filled in the gaps for PokerNews in a hand that saw Dimitar Iwanov-Petkin spike a two-outer to remain in the tournament.
There were around 3,000 chips in the pot on a flop of 2x4x7x when Mounir Tajiou checked and Dimitar Iwanov-Petkin fired 1,500. Tobias Garp then raised to 5,500, and Tajiou called. Iwanov-Petkin then shoved his stack of 13,000 into the middle, which Garp called.
"My hand can't be good," said Tajiou, and he folded.
Dimitar Iwanov-Petkin: 10♠10♣ 
Tobias Garp: 2♥2♠
Garp had flopped bottom set and just needed to fade the two remaining tens in the deck to score an elimination, while Iwanov-Petkin was on the brink of the rail.
"One time!" said Iwanov-Petkin. Just then, the dealer turned over the 10♦, which gave Iwanov-Petkin the lead with a set of tens. Garp was down to just one out, but didn't find it on the 4♥ river, which meant Iwanov-Petkin doubled up.
"Yessssssss!" shouted Iwanov-Petkin.
