Milos Miskovic Eliminated in 16th Place (€5,800)
On the next shuffle, while the whole table was still discussing the huge fold Milos Miskovic made with pocket queens, Predrag Premovic came in for a raise to 160,000 from early position.
When it got to Miskovic in the hijack, he resumed his stoic poker face and peeked at his cards. Then, after counting his stack, jammed for 1,650,000.
Nikolay Fal moved in over the top for around 1,800,000 from the small blind, and once Premovic folded, the two players tabled their hands with Miskovic at risk.
Milos Miskovic: 9♠9♣
Nikolay Fal: A♦K♠
Miskovic found himself in a race for his tournament life with the pair versus Fal's big slick.
The dealer fanned out a favorable flop for Fal in the form of K♦K♥10♣, giving him trips.
A 2♥ fell on turn and Miskovic was one card away from hitting the rail.
The Q♥ came on the river to complete the board, and Miskovic wished the players good luck as he ventured to the cashier's desk to collect his 16th-place payout.
