Oleksii Kravchuk Eliminated in 19th place ($42,088)
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Alec Torelli raised the button to 400,000 and Taylor Black three-bet from the small blind to 1,200,000. Oleksii Kravchuk moved all in from the big blind, for his remaining 4,740,000 chips, and Black was the only caller.
Oleksii Kravchuk: A♣Q♥
Taylor Black: K♥Q♣
Kravchuk was ahead pre-flop and looking to stay that way to keep him alive.
The flop came 5♥2♠5♣ and the Q♠ turn improved Kravchuk and he was in the lead with two pair with the ace kicker. All Kravchuk had to do was evade a king.
As the dealer placed the K♣ river, the table, and the rail, let out a gasp. Black stole the pot from Kravchuk and eliminated him in 19th place.
