Yakovenko Still Climbing
Niveau 17
: 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Big O
A player opened for 6,000 in the cutoff and Nikolai Yakovenko potted to 21,000 on his left. The opener tanked awhile and called the shove for about 10,000 on the 
flop.
Yakovenko was in there with a snap-call for all but his last 3,000, holding 
for trips. He was fading diamonds as his opponent showed 
. The turn was a 
and the river a 
, so Yakovenko scored the knockout.
Yakovenko was down to his last 4,000 and peeling his last card behind in a draw hand a little before dinner, and has now got a very playable stack.
