Level 21
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya raised to 425,000 from the cutoff with 50,000 behind. When it got to Gha Iakobishvili in the big blind, he used up a few of his time banks before jamming, covering Skhulukhiya. Skhulukhiya made the call for his tournament life.
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: K♦10♣ 
Gha Iakobishvili: K♣J♣
Iakobishvili came to the right decision and had Skhulukhiya crushed with the better kicker.
The flop fell A♥2♥8♥, and Iakobishvili remained in the lead. The rest of the board came 9♠K♠, meaning Iakobishvili's kicker played, and Skhulukhiya was out in tenth place.

Alex Kulev raised to 100,000 in the cutoff, Kenar moved all in for 480,000 in the small blind, and Kulev snap-called.
Meanwhile, at the other table Maksim Shornikau bet 85,000 from the cutoff on a flop of 7♥Q♠4♦ and Klemens Roiter called in the big blind.
Both players checked the 3♦ turn, and Roiter led out for 125,000 on the 6♠ river. Shornikau quickly called with Q♥J♠, and Roiter mucked Q♣8♣. Kulev and Kenar then revealed their cards.
Kenar: A♣Q♥
Alex Kulev: A♥J♥
Kenar had Kulev dominated as the flop came 10♥9♠8♦, but the Q♣ turn gave Kulev a straight. "You're running hot, man," Kenar said as he was up from his seat before the 2♠ completed the board on the river to seal his elimination.
"Lucky masseuse," Kulev, who has been receiving a massage for the past few levels, said.

Alex Kulev then raised to 100,000 under the gun and Thomas Muehloecker called in the big blind.
Kulev continued for 50,000 on the A♠J♠9♣ flop and Muehloecker moved all in for 345,000. "Do you have No. 1?" Kulev asked as he took a few moments before calling.
Thomas Muehloecker: A♣7♥
Alex Kulev: K♠10♦
Muehloecker didn't remain in the lead with his aces for long, as the Q♣ fell on the turn to give Kulev a straight. "I'm the best in the world," Kulev said, and the 4♥ river sealed Muehloecker elimination in 12th place.
