Alexey Rybin Eliminated in 2nd Place ($796,706)
Level 30
: 120,000/240,000, 0 ante
Alexey Rybin raised to 700,000 and James Calderaro three-bet the pot. Rybin announced a reraise and Calderaro moved all in to pick up a call by Rybin.
Alexey Rybin: 
James Calderaro: 
Calderaro's rail asked for a king and got their wish granted on the 
flop. Rybin was in need of the case queen or a jack for the straight, but the 
turn and 
river failed to improve the Russian. Rybin was eliminated in 2nd place for $796,706 while Calderaro's rail jumped from their seats to celebrate.
Calderaro will receive the elusive gold bracelet and a first-place payout of $1,289,074. A recap of today's action will be available later tonight.
