Brutal River Ends Akbarpoor's Event
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Konstantin Kvashin raised to 80,000 from the button and Abdullah Akbarpoor three-bet to 220,000 out of the big blind. After thinking for a few moment,s Kvashin four-bet shoved for roughly 1,000,000 and Akbarpoor snap-called for his remaining 700,000.
Abdullah Akbarpoor: A♥10♠ 
Konstantin Kvashin: K♥Q♠
Akbarpoor was ahead with ace-ten, but needed a safe runout from the dealer to boost his stack just before the end of today's play.
The flop of 6♦6♠2♦ was safe for Akbarpoor, and the 10♣ turn meant only a king or queen on the river would end his tournament. The dealer put out the Q♦ on the river to give Kvashin the winner with a pair of queens, sending Akbarpoor to the cahsier's desk.
