Anton Wigg raised the cutoff and Bogdan Jontulovic called from the big blind.
On the first flop that the four have seen in quite some time, Jontulovic checked on the 5♦J♥6♦ board and Wigg fired 700,000. Jontulovic then shoved, and Wigg snap-folded
Dmitry Gromov raised to 1,100,000 from the cutoff and Bogdan Jontulovic shoved from the button.
"You know what, this is crazy," said Nichan Khorchidian in the big blind, who then called off his stack of 10,300,000. Gromov quickly folded.
"I said that I will get pocket kings and you will get ace-x, then I will lose," said Khorchidian.
Nichan Khorchidian: K♣K♠
Bogdan Jontulovic: A♠10♠
Khorchidian's prediction on the cards was spot on, but there was still a runout to come and Gromov had folded an ace.
The flop of 6♠J♦Q♥ did give Jontulovic a gutshot, but Khorchidian held two of his outs. The 4♥ turn and 7♥ river changed nothing, and Khorchidian earned a double-up.
Anton Wigg shoved 2,800,000 from the button and Nichan Khorchidian shoved from the small blind.
Anton Wigg: K♠3♠
Nichan Khorchidian: K♥Q♣
Wigg was in a world of hurt and it got worse on the Q♠9♦8♣ flop as Khorchidian paired his queen. However, there was some hope on the J♠ turn as Wigg picked up a flush draw, however the 4♣ river was no help, and he headed home in 4th.
Dmitry Gromov shoved the button for 7,300,000 and Nichan Khorchidian snap-called from the big blind.
Dmitry Gromov: A♠4♦
Nichan Khorchidian: A♣Q♣
Gromov was shouting for a chop and did pick up some possibilities on the A♥K♣8♥ flop as another eight would mean they split. However the 6♥J♠ runout was no help to Gromov, and he left in 3rd.
