Simon Sends Rajkovic to the Exit
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Gilles Simon raised from the small blind and called after Adi Rajkovic shoved for around 300,000 from the big blind.
Adi Rajkovic: A♠8♦ 
Gilles Simon: A♣Q♦
Rajkovic was dominated by Simon's superior ace and looked likely to be eliminated just before the money.
The J♦Q♣6♣ flop put Simon even further in front, having paired his queen.
A 4♦ turn left Rajkovic drawing dead as an irrelevant 5♦ fell on the river. The pot went to Simon, and now everyone was just two spots away from the money.
