Vladimir Korzinin Eliminated in 3rd Place ($45,800)
Level 22
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs raised to 120,000 on the button. Vladimir Korzinin called in the small blind and Marcelo Bonanata did so in the big blind.
The 4?10?10? flop was then checked to Ponakovs, who fired 75,000. Korzinin called before Bonanata folded.
Ponakovs sized up to 275,000 on the 6? turn. Korzinin check-raised all in for his remaining 860,000 and was snap called by Ponakovs.
Vladimir Korzinin: K?8? 
Aleksejs Ponakovs: 10?9?
Korzinin's bluff was already drawing dead against Ponakovs' trips. He thanked his opponents for the game and then happily exclaimed, "Freedom!" as he left the table.
