{9-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

; Kers didn't have much but was ahead with {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{6-Spades}

. It all changed on a flop of {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

{9-Hearts}

{A-Diamonds}

, with Botabayev pairing nines to take a stranglehold on the pot.

But what's an all in without a good sweat? The turn {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

put two spades on board, giving Kers a flush draw to go with his draw at a pair of kings. With everyone in the gallery leaning in towards the table, the dealer burned and turned a black card -- but it was the {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

. Kers was eliminated in 5th place, taking home $114,464.
