Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

It took two hands for him to do it, but Bryan Colin eliminated Nikolai Yakovenko in 50th place.

On the first hand, Yakovenko put in his last 62,000 from the small blind with {Q-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and Colin called from the big blind with {K-Diamonds}{6-Spades}. The board ran out {10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs} as Yakovenko spiked the queen on the turn to stay alive.

The next hand though, Colin had Yakovenko on the ropes once again. Yakovenko shoved from the button and Colin called from the small blind with {A-Spades}{J-Spades}, leading Yakovenko's {K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}. This time Yakovenko would not pull the upset as the board came down {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}{10-Spades}{4-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

With the knockout, Bryan Colin is up to about 1,100,000.
