Vitalijs Zavorotnijs moved all in for a little under 2,00,000 and the action was on Truyen Nguyen who went deep into the tank. After a good minute, he finally made the fold and Chris Savage made the call to put Zavorotnijs at risk.
Vitalijs Zavorotnijs: 4?4?
Chris Savage: 6?6?
"Wow! I folded fives!" Nguyen breathed a sigh of relief as the cards were tabled.
The board runout of 2?3?J?K?Q? was of no help to Zavorotnijs and he was eliminated in 13th place.

Vitalijs Zavorotnijs opened to 500,000 from the cutoff, leaving himself just a few chips behind. A player in the small blind just called with the big blind getting out of the way to send action heads-up to the flop.
The small blind bet enough to force his opponent all in following the 3?J?10? flop and Zavorotnijs called for his tournament life.
Vitalijs Zavorotnijs: K?10?
Small Blind Player: K?Q?
Zavorotnijs had paired his kicker to take the lead, managing to hold on the 8? turn and 6? river to secure a double up.
