Khorchidia Takes Out Saiapin
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Iurii Saiapin opened to 120,000 from early position and Nichan Khorchidian shoved with the covering stack from the big blind. Saiapin had around 1,300,000 in his stack and after a few moments made the call to put himself at risk.
Iurii Saiapin: A♣Q♣ 
Nichan Khorchidian: A♦K♦
Saiapin was in terrible shape and needed a queen to stay alive. The board ran out K♣K♠2♥Q♠7♣ to give Khorchidian the winner with trip kings, and Saiapin was headed for the cashier's desk.
At another table Ion-Silviu Scobai was seen leaving his seat and has been eliminated from the tournament.
