Robert Burlacu Eliminated in 9th Place ($14,600)
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
While Jak Ferman was being eliminated on the outer table, a hand was still in progress up on the main feature stage.
Robert Burlacu had opened to 500,000 in the cutoff and Danesh Zargaran three-bet to 1,625,000 in the small blind. Burlacu then moved all in for 9,700,000.
Zargaran tanked for several minutes and burned through all of his time bank cards before putting in the chips to call, creating a pot of more than 20,000,000.
Robert Burlacu: Q♦J♦ 
Danesh Zargaran: A♣J♠
Burlacu found himself dominated but picked up some outs on the 10♠9♦4♠ flop with a straight draw. The 2♣ turn was no help, while the J♥ river gave both players top pair but Zargaran's ace-kicker played to send Burlacu to the rail in ninth place.
