Amit Makhija Eliminates Vasili Firsau
Michael Dietrich raised to 26,000 from under the gun, Ben Vinson three-bet to 64,000 in the next seat, Amit Makhila four-bet jammed for 196,000 in the hijack seat and Vasili Firsau also moved all-in from the cutoff. The action folded around to Vinson and he asked for a count of Makhija's stack as it was the bigger of the two. After a short while Vinson folded and left Makhija and Firsau to their own devices.
