Darie Doubles Trofimov Up

Level 6 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Dragos Trofimov
Dragos Trofimov

The board read {8-Clubs}{q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{4-Spades} with 36,400 in the middle already.

Vlad Darie checked in the big blind and Dragos Trofimov bet 12,400 from the button which Darie called.

The {a-Hearts} completed the board on the river and Darie checked for the last time. Trofimov now decided to shove and Darie asked for a count. The dealer confirmed Trofimov had 43,200 behind and Darie made the call after contemplating for about a minute. Trofimov tabled {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} for trip fours and Darie held {q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for two pair.

Shortly after, Darie was seen leaving the tournament area as he was eliminated as were Melika Razavi and Ali reza Fatehi.
