Level 8: 600/1,200 (1,200)
Entries: 537/848

Andrei Piatrushchanka opened to 2,500 from UTG+1. Then, Francisco Ares put in a raise to 7,000 from the Hi-jack. Action folded back to Piatrushchanka, who four-bet to 18,000. After a minute’s worth of consideration, Ares moved all in for just shy of 50,000. Piatrushchanka made the call faster than the speed of lightning.

Francisco Ares: T♠T♣
Andrei Piatrushchanka: J♥J♦

Ares was visibly disappointed to see what he was up against, and he rose from his chair on the 4♣2♥7♦. The old trick didn’t work as the runout spelled out Q♦A♣, and Ares’ tournament life came to an end.

Andrei Piatrushchanka: 211,000
