Level 43
: 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
On the first hand, Anatolii Zyrin shoved in the small blind and it was snap-called by Phuoc Nguyen in the blinds for a stack of 41,900,000.

versus 
for Nguyen, but a board 
appeared, giving a set of eights to Nguyen as well as the double up.
The hand right after, Zyrin shoved for his last 9,900,000 and this time David Ripley called in the big blind for the following showdown:
Anatolii Zyrin: 
David Ripley: 
Zyrin had the dominated hand but managed to find a board 
, giving him a straight on the river for the needed double up.
