Raka Saved, Then Eliminated

Level 10 : Blinds 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Veton Raka and Yehor Shumeiko were heads up on a board showing 1078 and all of Raka's chips in the middle.

Veton Raka: 97
Yehor Shumeiko: J9

Raka frustratedly stood as he saw his flopped straight sit second best to Shumeiko's jack-high straight. The K turn left Raka trailing, but the J river left both players with the same hand as Raka was saved by the chop.

A short while later though, the rest of Raka's stack was gone as he hit the rail.
