Danilo Donnini got the ball rolling with a raise to 800,000 from early position. This picked up calls from Weijie Zheng in the cutoff, Vasyl Palandiuk in the small blind, and Kenneth Svendsen in the big blind.

The dealer spread a 1039 flop, which saw action check to the Zheng. After assembling some chips, he put 1,200,000 into the middle, which Palandiuk called in the small blind. Svendsen then opted to raise to 4,300,000 from the big blind, leaving just 300,000 behind.

The action folded back to Palandiuk, who moved all in, and Svendsen called.

Kenneth Svendsen: 108 All in
Vasyl Palandiuk: K10

Svendsen was going to need some help if he was to survive, but the deck didn't have any help in store.

The 7 turn offered hope, but the 2 river was a brick that saw Svendsen eliminated.
