Level 7 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Stanislav Tishkevich was making his exit from the tournament and stopped to relate the massive pot that sent him and Sakis Adrianapoulos to the rail.

According to Tishkevich, he three-bet to 15,000 in early position and Adrianapoulos called in middle position. Ilia Korliakov then moved all in from the cutoff for around 150,000 and both Tishkevich and Adrianapoulos called with smaller stacks, creating a pot worth nearly 450,000.

Stanislav Tishkevich: KK
Sakis Adrianapoulos: QQ
Ilia Korliakov: AA

Tishkevich and Adrianapoulos had both run into Korliakov's aces as the board ran out 4J897, sending the pile of chips over to Korliakov and moving the Russian up amongst the chip leaders.
