Sergei Pevzner opened with a raise to 7,000 and Volodymyr Zakharov made a three-bet to 22,000. Peyzner then moved all in, and Zakharov made the call for his own tournament life, committing his final 111,800 chips to the pot and showing down {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Diamonds}

. The race was on as his opponent tabled {A-?}

{A-?}

{K-?}

.

The board would run out safe for the at-risk player, coming {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{7-Spades}

{J-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

{4-Diamonds}

. With his queens holding, Zakharov notches a big double up to about 225,000. That loss slips Peyzer down into the danger zone under 15,000.

On an adjacent table, Gregory Zima was all in with {A-?}

{A-?}

{K-?}

himself, and he found action and a race from David Sonelin who turned over {7-?}

{7-?}

{7-?}

. This time though, a king on the flop spelled salvation for the overcards, Zima picking up a crucial double up to about 120,000.
