Sargsian Eclipses Two Million by Taking Out Palandiuk
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Four players saw a flop of K♠4♦J♣ where Nerses Sargsian bet 35,000 from the hijack. Yossi Eluz folded in the cutoff, as did Mohamad El-Sayed in the small blind, but Vasyl Palandiuk moved all in for 180,000 in the big blind. Sargsian quickly called.
Vasyl Palandiuk: J♠8♦ 
Nerses Sargsian: K♦Q♣
Sargsian was ahead with his pair of kings as the board ran out A♠Q♥, improving him to two pair and sending Palandiuk to the rail.
