Savevski Struggles in All-Ins
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ilija Savevski opened his button, Antonio Merone three-bet from the small blind, and Savevski responded by putting his opponent all in for 705,000. Merone instantly called, creating a showdown.
Antonio Merone: A♦A♣ 
Ilija Savevski: 5♠5♦
The deck had no five in store on the Q♣Q♠2♥8♣J♦ runout, securing the double-up for Merone's aces.
A few hands later, Savevski got his remaining 400,000 in from the hijack against Gerard Carbo in the small blind.
Ilija Savevski: A♠K♥
Gerard Carbo: K♣Q♠
This time, Savevski was ahead preflop, but he once again faced an uphill battle after the Q♥K♠5♣ flop. The 8♦ turn did not help Savevski, and neither did the 7♣ river, making him the next player to be eliminated.
