Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

After dropping to 755,000, Niall Farrell shove all in after action folded to him in the small blind. Valentino Konakchiev asked for a count from the big and then made the call.

Konakchiev: {a-Clubs}{6-Spades}
Farrell: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}

Konakchiev seemed a bit surprised Farrell had such a strong hand, which got even stronger on the {q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop. "No four on the river," Farrell said after the {3-Spades} turn gave Konakchiev a gutshot straight draw. "Four on the river won it four me, it can't lose it for me."

Farrell, who was referring to an earlier hand where he got lucky to catch a four on the river and eliminate an opponent, got his wish as the harmless {8-Clubs} appeared on the river.
