Atanas Gueorguiev - 8th place

Toni Pettersson raised, only for Atanas Gueorguiev to reraise from the small blind. Pettersson pushed, Gueorguiev called, and they were on their backs.

Gueorguiev: {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{9-Hearts}

Pettersson: all in for 2,360,000 with {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

Board:

{2-Hearts}

{J-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

{K-Hearts}

Pettersson doubled to 4,920,000 and although his expression wasn't quite a smile, it was the closest thing to it we've seen all day.

The next hand Alexey Rybin raised to 275,000 and the crippled Gueorguiev called all in for his last 200,000. Small blind Jakob Carlsson called the raise, but laid it down to a bet from Rybin on the {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{9-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

flop. On their backs.

Rybin: {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

for top pair, a gutshot and a flush draw
Gueorguiev: in some very serious trouble with {J-Hearts}

{J-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

Turn:

{A-Clubs}

to give Rybin the nut flush and leave Gueorguiev drawing dead

River: an academic {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

We are down our last Bulgarian, and our finalists are now seven.
