Russian Roulette

Apologies for our internet problems.

The action in the past few minutes has been largely still cagey, with plenty of blinds going to whoever raises first, usually in late or mid position.

Sergey Rybachenko is still chip leader, although there have been a few instances of our other finalists playing back at him.

Rybachenko raised to 80,000 preflop, and Matthew Giannetti made it another 250,000, forcing Rybachenko to fold.

Not so fortunate, though,was John Strzemp, who put in a raise to Rybachenko's bet on a {7-Diamonds} {Q-Spades} {7-Hearts} {4-Clubs} board, only to quickly lay it down when Rybachenko went all in.

Rybachenko is now on 2.3 million.
