, giving him top pair and the nut flush draw. The {4-Diamonds}

on the turn made him two pair and he filled up on the river with the {J-Clubs}

, knocking Kravchenko's stack all the way down to 900.

Though Kravchenko was able to double up on two consecutive hands, taking his stack back up to 4,600, he was eliminated a short time later and is now free to concentrate on the $10,000 stud tournament, where he still has a stack.
