Oleksii Kravchuk Eliminated in 19th place ($42,088)
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Alec Torelli raised the button to 400,000 and Taylor Black three-bet from the small blind to 1,200,000. Oleksii Kravchuk moved all in from the big blind, for his remaining 4,740,000 chips, and Black was the only caller.
Oleksii Kravchuk: A?Q?
Taylor Black: K?Q?
Kravchuk was ahead pre-flop and looking to stay that way to keep him alive.
The flop came 5?2?5? and the Q? turn improved Kravchuk and he was in the lead with two pair with the ace kicker. All Kravchuk had to do was evade a king.
As the dealer placed the K? river, the table, and the rail, let out a gasp. Black stole the pot from Kravchuk and eliminated him in 19th place.
