Eights Cripple Hajiyev, Then They Bust Him
[Removed:564] opened to 32,000 in the cutoff and Ramin Hajiyev three-bet all out of the big blind. [Removed:565] called all in for the 312,000 in his stack, just shy of Hajiyev's total, and the two were off to the races.
[Removed:564]: 
Ramin Hajiyev: 
It was a coin flip until the flop came 
, locking up the double for [Removed:565] as the turn 
and river 
completed the runout.
On the following hand, [Removed:565] opened to 32,000 again in the hijack and Hajiyev went all in for his last 39,000. [Removed:565] called.
Ramin Hajiyev: 
[Removed:564]:
[Removed:565] had picked up the same exact hand, suits and all for the second consecutive time. It proved to hold once again as the board ran out 
, leaving Hajiyev drawing dead on the turn to take the tournament from 12 players down to 11, bringing the field within two eliminations from reaching the money.
