Short-stacked Anatoly Nikitin moved all in for his last 80,000 and then Fabrice Bigot re-raised to 200,000 to isolate. The other players got out of the way and the cards were tabled.
Anatoly Nikitin: Q?Q?
Fabrice Bigot: K?4?
Nikitin was in a good position to double up with his pocket queens but the flop of K?A?2? was heartbreaking as it gave Bigoit the lead with his pair of kings. The runout of J?7? did not help Nikitin and he was sent to the payout desk.
With his elimination, the players are now down to the final three tables.
Player | Chips | Progress |
