Andrei Vavilonskii Eliminated in 4th Place ($124,475)

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Andrei Vavilonskii
Andrei Vavilonskii

Ankit Ahuja open-jammed in the small blind and Andrei Vavilonskii gave it some thought before calling off for around 7,000,000 in the big blind.

Andrei Vavilonskii: A2
Ankit Ahuja: K5

Vavilonskii's ace-high was still ahead on the 479 flop, and the A gave him a bigger lead while giving Ahuja flush outs. The 4 then landed on the river to give Ahuja the flush and mark the Day 3 chip leader's elimination in fourth place.

Gadzhiev Folds Away Three-Quarters Of Stack

Level 36 : Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante

Roman Gadzhiev opened to 1,000,000 in the cutoff and Eduard Norel three-bet to 3,000,000 on the button. Gadzhiev four-bet to 7,000,000 and Norel called.

Gadzhiev continued for 5,300,000 on the 4Q2 flop and Norel called. Gadzhiev then checked on the 9 turn with just 4,500,000 behind and Norel put him to the test by moving all in.

Gadzhiev squirmed around in his chair and eventually slid his cards to the muck, despite getting the incredible price.

"You cannot fold," complained the short-stacked Andrei Teodorescu, who was undoubtedly irritated about potentially missing out on a pay jump.

"All in preflop," advised Ankit Ahuja.
