Damir Gabdullin
Damir Gabdullin

Out of his massive stack of 900,000, Damir Gabdullin raised to 400,000 by using all his red T-25,000 chips and had everyone on the table covered by a lot. One after the other folded, except for Dmitry Gromov who used his 30 seconds to act and called all in for what appeared to be 155,000.

Dmitry Gromov: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}
Damir Gabdullin: {9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}

The {10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop gave Gabdullin a gutshot, and he filled up to a pair on the {9-Spades} turn. A blank {q-Spades} came on the river and that reduced the field to the final 81 players. One table will now break and the action then continues on the money bubble.
