Botez Ends Afriat's Day
Nivel 8
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
After losing a big pot, Eric Afriat was all-in for his last 4,000 from the small blind.
Jovan Kenjic opened the hijack to 32,000 and Alexandra Botez called in the big blind.
On the K♣Q♠4♥ flop, Botez check-called a 20,000 bet from Kenjic as Afriat stood up from his chair and paced around.
The A♦ turn checked through to the 9♥ river which saw Botez lead for 100,000 and Kenjic reluctantly folded.
Eric Afriat: K♥J♠ 
Alexandra Botez: Q♦9♣
Afriat was ahead until the river but Botez made two pair as the chess star sent the fashion designer to the rail.
