Maxim Lykov's hopes for a second EPT Main Event title were recently dashed. Back in 2009, the Russian poker player won the EPT 6 Kiev Main Event during the tour's only stop to Ukraine for €330,000.
Konstantin Uspenskiy opened the action from early position before deep stacked Apostolos Bechrakis three-bet and Maxim Lykov declared himself to be all in. Uspenskiy got out of the way and Bechrakis quickly called.
Lykov:
Bechrakis:
Lykov was ahead on the flop, however, Bechrakis picked up more outs with a queen appearing on the turn or river able to complete a straight. The
on the turn was another safe card for Lykov, however, he was eliminated from the tournament after the
completed the board on the river giving Bechrakis a straight.
Bechrakis was hovering around 2 million chips after the last break, however, lost a hand before this one and just rebounded in this hand back up to 1,750,000.
