Just like that. Damir Zhugralin is out in fourth!

Gerard Carbo Santamaria opened the button to 1,000,000 and Zhugralin called in the big blind.

The flop came 628, where Zhugralin check-called a bet of 925,000 from Santamaria.

A J hit the turn and again Zhugralin checked, and again Santamaria bet, this time for 2,400,000. Zhugralin took some time and eventually called.

When the Q hit the river, Zhugralin checked for a third time and Santamaria went for the trifecta of bets with a sizing of 5,700,000. Zhugralin burned through a time bank before he made it 16,500,000, leaving himself just 75,000 behind.

Santamaria looked to have the covering stack and around a minute later, he shoved. Zhugralin snap-folded, leaving himself with a speck in his stack.

In the next hand, Zhugralin had his chips in from the small blind and was up against Santamaria again, who was looking to finish the job.

Damir Zhugralin: A10 All in
Gerard Carbo Santamaria: QQ

Zhugralin fell further behind on the Q58 flop, and caught no miracle as the 39 runout left him out in fourth.
