Level 28 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Kirill Aleksandrov moved all in from early position for roughly 500,000 with Kostadin Kostadinov making the call from the button. Aleksandr Burov had just one big blind and called for his tournament life from the small blind.

Aleksandr Burov: Q?Q? All in
Kirill Aleksandrov: 9?9? All in
Kostadin Kostadinov: 8?8?

Kostadinov had a chance to send two players to the rail if he could spike an eight. The flop of 8?7?7? gave Kostadinov a full house and put him firmly in the lead. However, the Q? on the turn propelled Burov into the lead with a higher boat, and he could only lose to a one-outer on the river. The dealer put out the 8? on the river to give Kostadinov the winner with quad eights and bust both Aleksandrov and Burov.
