Nikolay Fal Eliminated in 2nd Place (€75,000)
Level 37
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Nikolay Fal shoved the button for 3,800,000 and Timur Margolin called from the big blind.
Nikolay Fal: K♣Q♣ 
Timur Margolin: J♣10♥
Margolin had another chance to scoop the lot, but was left with three outs after the 6♠A♦Q♦ flop gave Fal middle pair.
A king is what Margolin needed, and a king is what he got as the K♦ turn improved him to Broadway and left him one card away from the title.
It wasn't over yet as Fal could still improve to a full house, but the 8♣ river wasn't what he needed, which meant he had to settle for second.
