Viacheslav Goryachev Eliminated in 5th Place (€186,840)

Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante
Viacheslav Goryachev
Viacheslav Goryachev

Laurynas Levinskas limped the button for 120,000 and Simon Deadman in the big blind asked if it indeed was just a call. Before Deadman needed to act though, Viacheslav Goryachev shoved all in from the small blind for 380,000 total. Deadman folded, Levinskas insta called.

Levinskas had a monster and was trapping with his {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. Viacheslav Goryachev had a real hand though with {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds} and it was about fifty fifty for both players.

"Unbelievable" said Zaichenko wondering out loud how Goryachev had a real hand every time he really needed it. This time Goryachev wouldn't double though.

The {6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{6-Spades} flop and {10-Hearts} turn were blanks, but the {A-Hearts} on the river paired up Levinskas and Goryachev left in 5th place. The remaining four players are guaranteed €238,320 richer.
