Quads For Alajmi!
Level 9
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Anatoliy Zlotnikov made it 16,000 to go and then Abdullah Alajmi shoved from the next seat for 225,000. When it got back to Zlotnikov, he call off his stack of around 200,000.
Anatoliy Zlotnikov: 9♣9♠ 
Abdullah Alajmi: 8♦8♣
Zlotnikov was well ahead with his nines but a flop of 8♥6♣J♠ gave Alajmi a set. The hand was all over on the turn as Alajmi improved to quads when the 8♠ peeled off, leaving Zlotnikov drawing dead.
A meaningless K♥ dropped on the river, confirming Zlotnikov's elimination.
