Arutun Saakyn Eliminated by Mikhail Korotkikh

Level 6 : 250/500, 75 ante

Mikhail Korotkikh limped from early position, as did the player in the hijack. The cutoff then raised to 2,500 before Arutun Saakyn three-bet all in for 17,125.

Korotkikh then moved all in himself for 24,325. The other two players folded.

Saakyn showed {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} and Korotkikh nonchalantly waved his hand as he turned over {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}.

The board ran out {7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Spades} and Saakyn was eliminated. Meanwhile, the inquiry from the players in the hijack and cutoff continued, with both saying that they would have won the hand and eliminated two players.
