Steve 'The Big Show' Topakas has used up his ninth life and has just been eliminated from the main event by Annette Obrestad.

Frederik Jensen opened the pot with a raise to 40,000 from under-the-gun and Topakas, next-to-act, moved all in over the top for a total of 112,000. Action then folded around to Obrestad in the small blind who reraised, making it 215,000 to play. Jensen released his hand and Obrestad and Topakas revealed their cards:

Obrestad: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Topakas: {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}

The board then ran out {3-Hearts}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{A-Hearts} and there'd be no miracles for Topakas this time around, as he joined the rail our 12th place finisher.

After the hand, Obrestad stacked up 1.9 million in chips.
