[user198174]

Eli Elezra raised and found a caller in Iakov Nepomnyashchiy. Nepomnyashchiy took two cards while Elezra opted for one. Nepmnyashchiy then check called a bet from Elezra.

It was here that both players took one card. Nepomnyashchiy then bet for the first time and was quickly called by Elezra. Nepomnyashchiy stood pat as Elezra drew one. Nepomnyashchiy finished off the hand by check calling a bet from Elezra.

Elezra showed {8-} {6-} {4-} {3-} {2-} which was enough and Nepomnyashchiy mucked.

Shortly after this hand Elezra and Nepomnyashchiy got into another hand, and Elezra again got the better half of it, and Iakov Nepomnyashchiy was eliminated.
