Level 19 : 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Tommy Nguyen opened to 30,000 from middle position before Yurii Zabrodotskyi three-bet to 80,000 on the button. Liubomyr Melnyk then four-bet to 205,000 from the small blind. Nguyen folded, and Zabrodotskyi moved all in for 282,000. Melnyk made the call, and the cards were on their backs.

Yurii Zabrodotskyi: A♦K♣All in
Liubomyr Melnyk: A♠9♥

The J♥9♦2♠ flop gave Melnyk a pair of nines and the lead. The K♦ turn gave Zabrodotskyi top pair and the advantage, and the 7♦ river changed nothing.

Zabrodotskyi secured a full double-up and stayed alive in the tournament.
