El Yaacoubi Hits the River to Bust Hovhannisyan
Level 27
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Mels Hovhannisyan moved all in for 1,550,000 in the hijack and Rachid El Yaacoubi called in the small blind.
Mels Hovhannisyan: 9?9? 
Rachid El Yaacoubi: A?10?
The K?K?J? flop gave El Yaacoubi a straight draw and outs to counterfeit Hovhannisyan's pair. The 5? turn was safe for Hovhannisyan, but the Q? fell on the river to complete El Yaacoubi's straight and send Hovhannisyan to the rail.
