Break With Six Remaining

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Maksym Lavrov had raise-folded with decent starting hands three times and his fourth attempt with {q-Clubs}{j-Spades} for 200,000 saw Anton Konovalov jam all in with {a-Spades}{9-Clubs} out of the small blind. Lavrov once again folded and his stack plummeted to around 30 big blinds.

Konovalov raised the button to 200,000 with {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Ivan Fedorov jammed out of the small blind with the {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for 14 big blinds to win the last hand of the level before the players headed on a 15-minute break.
