Andrey Shatilov Eliminated in 16th Place ($13,240)

Andrey Shatilov has been eliminated in the space of two hands; btoh against [Removed:2].

The first saw Shatilov open to 20,000 UTG+1 and after Robert Mizrachi folded [Removed:2] three-bet to 45,000. The action passed back to Shatilov and he four-bet to 83,000 and 90-seconds later Maksoud five-bet to 125,000. This was enough to get the job done because Shatilov folded and was shown {A-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for his troubled.

The very next hand Shatilov opened to 20,000 once again and Maksoud three-bet to 45,000. Shatilov made it 87,000 to play and Maksoud four-bet to 87,000. With the action back on Shatilov he made it 139,000 (we're not making this up, honest), Maksoud shoved and Shatilov snap-called.

Shatilov: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Maksoud: {A-Diamonds}{K-Spades}

By the river the board read {q-Hearts}{8-Spades}{6-Spades}{j-Spades}{a-Spades} and although the ace alone would have been enough to win the hand for Maksoud, it also completed a spade flush and with that Shatilov was eliminated.
