Fare Thee Well, Evdakov!

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

We walked up to the table just in time to catch Nikolay Evdakov bust. In the hand, three players had seen a flop of {Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades} and the player in the small blind bet. A middle position player either called or raised, Evdakov moved all in from the cutoff for around 20,000, and the small blind, who had the big stack, moved all in over the top. The middle position player folded and the cards were turned up:

Evdakov: {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Small Blind: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

The small blind had flopped top set and left Evdakov looking for a club to stay alive. The {2-Diamonds} was no help and neither was the {K-Hearts} river. Just like that, Evdakov was eliminated from the Big Event.
