Markkos Ladev Eliminated in 16th Place (�76,200)
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Markkos Ladev and Adrian Mateos were involved in a blind-on-blind pot. On the 3?J?2?J? board, Ladev check-called a 30,000 bet from Mateos.
The river fell the 4? and Ladev checked again. Mateos put him to the test for his final 100,000 chips, which sent Ladev into the tank. After a while, he made the call for his tournament life.
Mateos showed down 6?5? for the rivered straight. ''Do I have to show?'' Ladev asked. After an affirmative answer was given, he showed that he had called with just a pair of ducks: Q?2?.
The hero call did not bear fruit and Ladev was eliminated as the first player from the final two tables.
