The Day Ends With Markachev's Elimination
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Heads-up to the turn on a board of 6♠J♦4♣K♥ between Anton Markachev in the big blind, and Timur Margolin on the button. Markachev checked, which caused Margolin to bet 350,000. After a long tank, Markachev check-shoved for 1,130,000 and Margolin quickly made the call.
Anton Markachev: A♠10♣
Timur Margolin: A♣K♣
Margolin was way ahead with top pair top kicker and only a queen on the river could save Markachev from being the last elimination of the day.
The dealer burned a card and put out the 8♣ on the river, meaning Markachev was out, and Margolin had over four million.
