Stoyan Madanzhiev Eliminated in 8th Place ($45,000); Ehsan Amiri Eliminated in 9th Place ($34,400)
Level 23
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Jovan Kenjic opened to 800,000 from middle position with K♠Q♣, then Aleksandr Kirichenko to his left called, as well as Stoyan Madanzhiev and Ehsan Amiri in the blinds.
The dealer fanned a flop of 5♣9♣5♥, and Madanzhiev moved directly all-in for 1,800,000. Amiri shoved as well for 200,000 and Kirichenko was the only one to call both stacks.
Ehsan Amiri: Q♠9♥ 
Stoyan Madanzhiev: K♣10♣
Aleksandr Kirichenko: Q♦Q♥
Kirichenko and Amiri flopped two pair, but Kirichenko with the biggest stack had the best hand. Madanzhiev with a flush draw was still hoping for clubs, but the J♠ turn and the 3♦ didn't change anything so both Amiri and Madanzhiev were eliminated.
