Javakhishvili Finishes Off the Start-of-Day Chip Leader
Nivel 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Krasimir Yankov began the day as chip leader, but his tournament came to an end less than an hour into Day 2 after a hand against Vakhtang Javakhishvili.
On a flop of 3♦6♦J♥, Yankov got his last 240,000 in the middle from the small blind as Javakhishvili, who barely had him covered, put him at risk on the button.
Krasimir Yankov: K♠J♠10♥8♥ 
Vakhtang Javakhishvili: 9♦9♠2♠2♦
Yankov was ahead with top pair, but the Q♦ turn gave Javakhishvili a flush and the 10♠ river sealed Yankov's elimination.
