Moldoveanu Survives on the River; Hrabec Finishes Off Astedt
Level 18
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Petr Svoboda raised to 45,000 in middle position, Marius Moldoveanu moved all in for 71,000 in the hijack, and Svoboda called.
Marius Moldoveanu: A♥3♣ 
Petr Svoboda: Q♣Q♠
The 7♦4♠6♥K♣ board left Moldoveanu a card away from elimination, but he spiked the A♠ on the river to win the pot and double up.
At another table, Roman Hrabec ended the Main Event run of Niklas Astedt. Hrabec recalled that Astedt shoved for 58,000 and Hrabec called in the big blind with 10x2x. Astedt had A♦10♦, but Hrabec hit trip deuces on the board to win the pot and send Astedt to the rail.
