Another Double for Krstanoski
Daniel Idema raised to 40,000 from under the gun and action folded to Bjorn Li in the small blind. Li three-bet and made it 120,000 to go. Mile Krstanoski was in the big blind and four-bet to 405,000. That knocked Idema out of the way and action fell back to Li. He studied his opponent and then announced that he was all in. Krstanoski made the call.

The river was the 
and Li let out a big sigh while dropping and splashing all of the chips he was holding in his hand, clearly upset that he didn't win the flip to knock out Krstanoski. Krstanoski doubled up and is now second in chips.
