On the button, Ville Mattila raised to 110,000. Alexander Kravchenko moved all in for 225,000 from the big blind and Mattila made the call.

Mattila held the {J-Spades}{7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{4-Hearts}. He was up against the all-in Kravchenko's {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}.

The flop came down {Q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} and Kravchenko stayed in front. The turn brought the {7-Diamonds} and paired Mattila, but Kravchenko was still best. The river completed the board with the {5-Hearts} and gave Mattila a backdoor straight. Kravchenko was eliminated in eighth place for over $85,000.

It's also of note that with this finish, Kravchenko moved from seventh to sixth on the Europeans at the WSOP money list, passing Erik Fridberg.
