Acharya Takes a Fall and Plint Pips the Pot
Dana Acharya was on the button and up against Megan Yalkut in the big blind and on a 4?2?J? flop.
Both players checked to a Q? turn and Yalkut checked again. Acharya bet 1,200 and got a call from Yalkut.
The K? completed the board and Yalkut checked again. Acharya bet 2,800 and Yalkut folded, giving some chips back to Acharya after she lost a big portion of her stack in the previous level.
In the next hand, Sveltana Lebeva opened from the button and got two calls from both the blinds, Yalkut and Louisa Plint.
Lebeva bet 1,700 on the 10?4?8? flop, which got two more calls from the blinds.
Lebeva bet 3,000 on the 4? turn, which was called by Yalkut in the small blind and raised to 13,000 by Plint.
Yalkut and Lebeva folded, leaving Plint to take the pot just a few hands before the break.
