Ruben Hovsepyan Eliminated in 8th Place ($7,270)
Level 30
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Kerem Turuskan raised to 320,000 from early position and Timur Mukhamedaminov three-bet the button to 1,050,000. Ruben Hovsepyan then shoved from the small blind for 1,170,000, which got Turuskan to fold, then Mukhamedaminov put in the extra.
Ruben Hovsepyan: Q?Q? 
Timur Mukhamedaminov: A?A?
Hovsepyan had picked up queens at the worst possible time as Mukhamedaminov had the rockets and wanted to blast his opponent out of the tournament.
The runout of 2?8?8?5?6? changed nothing, and Hovsepyan was sent to the rail in eighth.
