Level 26 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Akin Guven moved all in for around 800,000 from middle position and was called by chip leader John Doe in the cutoff.

Akin Guven: {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}
John Doe: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

Both players hit top pair on the {6-Spades}{a-Clubs}{4-Spades} flop, but Doe's king-kicker stayed in front. Guven was already standing up from his seat by the time the {10-Hearts} turn appeared, and his elimination was sealed on the {j-Clubs} river as Doe added more to his already massive stack.
