Senadin Cosic: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

Cosic scored the knock out and raked in the pot after the {k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} runout.

As that hand was wrapping up, William Kassouf was exiting the tournament room after he bowed out in a four-way all-in.

Azevskis Downs Borde

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Anthony Borde moved in for his last 35,000 from late position before Dmitrijs Azevskis re-shoved from the small blind. The big blind folded and Borde was at risk.

Anthony Borde: {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Dmitrijs Azevskis: {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}

The pocket sixes were looking good on the {j-Spades}{4-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop but were obliterated and sealed Borde's fate after the {a-Hearts} turn and {k-Clubs} river.

PN Podcast Special Edition: Eugene Katchalov on Escaping Ukraine Amid Russian Invasion

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

In the latest PokerNews Podcast, Chad Holloway chats with Eugene Katchalov, Ukraine's all-time money leader, about his harrowing escape from Kyiv as Russia invaded. The World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet winner and World Poker Tour (WPT) champ documented his experience in real-time via Twitter, which gave his followers a glimpse into civilian life during war.

"Feels surreal, like being inside of a war movie. Don’t know anyone who expected it to get this bad," Katchalov tweeted.

He also informed his Twitter followers that he found a few hotel rooms in a local village and "will likely spend at least a few days" there. Later in the day, he decided to change up his plans and head toward the border, which he crossed after being stuck in "massive traffic and hoping there will be gas to fill up along the way."

Katchalov spoke to PokerNews about what he and his wife experienced, as well as what they're doing now to help family, friends, and other refugees looking to get out of Ukraine.

Katchalov, who retired from poker in 2018 to switch to E-Sports, is Ukraine's all-time winningest tournament player with $9.2 million in cashes while Yevgeniy Timoshenko is in second place with just over $7.8 million.

While this is a poker podcast, the topic discussed is much bigger than the game.
