Hirs Eliminated in Brutal Runout
Level 21
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Aliaksandr Hirs shoved from the cutoff for 2,700,000 and when it got to Nenad Dukic in the big blind, he took some time before he called with a slightly covering in the big blind.
Aliaksandr Hirs: K♠Q♦
Nenad Dukic: A♣7♦
Dukic had made the right call but looked like he was going to get punished when the flop came Q♠8♣K♦. An 8♦ on the turn did put a pair on board and gave Dukic one shot at hitting one of the remaining aces in the deck.
That's exactly what he did when the A♥ peeled off on the river as Dukic improved to a better two pair, sending Hirs to the rail.
