Dmitry Gromov Eliminated in 24th Place ($27,442)

Level 23 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Dmitry Gromov

Out of the blue, two of the largest stacks left in the field got all of the money in preflop. Thomas Ross and Dmitry Gromov just played a 1.5 million chip pot with Ross holding the {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} to Gromov's {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}.

"Here she comes!" announced Ross as he waited for the flop to come out with the hopes of a queen there.

The dealer ran the flop out {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and just like Ross asked for, a queen was there. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and the river the {6-Clubs}, which meant Ross won the hand with a set of queens and the massive pot. He eliminated Gromov in 24th place and moved his stack to 2.24 million.
