Boris Angelov Eliminated in 3rd Place (€439,200)
Khossein Kokhestani raised to 625,000 from the small blind with 10♣6♠ and Boris Angelov called with A♣8♥ in the big blind.
The flop came 2♦7♣9♣ and Kokhestani continued with a bet of 700,000, which Angelov called.
On the 10♠ turn, Kokhestani made a pair of tens and Angelov picked up a straight draw. Kokhestani shoved on his opponent with the covering stack.
Angelov scratched his head and creased his forehead, throwing a time bank card into the middle and leaning on his hands, then throwing in his last time bank card. He then called all in for 4,725,000.
Angelov needed to find help on the river in the form of an ace, jack or six. The river came the 3♠ and Kokhestani held to win the pot.
The 2024 Main Event runner-up Angelov couldn't quite top last year's result and was eliminated in third place for €439,200.
