Urbanovich Goes Out in Style to Christoforou

Before the hand, Ali Nejad came by the table to talk with fellow commentator Andrew Hedley.

"How's he playing," Nejad asked the table.

"I'm the worst here," tablemate Wael Sarkis replied as they began discussing a hand Sarkis had played earlier against Aleksandr Kirichenko on the live stream.

Andreas Christoforou then raised to 60,000 in the cutoff and Dzmitry Urbanovich moved all in for 235,000 on the button. "It's a flip," Christoforou said as he called.

Dzmitry Urbanovich: 6♦6♠
Andreas Christoforou: 9♠9♣

Christoforou unexpectedly found himself well ahead of Urbanovich's sixes as the flop brought 8♦K♥9♥ to give him a set. The board ran out 3♦9♦ and Christoforou hit quads on the river to make Urbanovich's elimination official.

"He shows up on Day 2 and is the chip leader," Sarkis said about Christoforou.

Nazar Buhaiov and Ilia Korliakov were also recently eliminated.
