Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Polish poker phenom Dzmitry Urbanovich has just been eliminated from the tournament. He started out the day with just under quarter of a million chips, but was already down to 145,000 when his final hand started.

Jack O'Neill raised to 11,000 from the button and Urbanovich three-bet to 22,500 from the small blind with about 120,000 behind.

The big blind quickly released but O'Neill had bigger plans. The Brit four-bet to 46,000. Urbanovich leaned back and thought about it for just a bit before announcing all in. O'Neill instantly called by tossing in some more yellow 5,000-chips.

Jack O'Neill:
Dzmitry Urbanovich:

The board ran out and Urbanovich left the tournament area.
