Alexey Borovkov Eliminated in 12th Place ($75,000)
Level 20
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Alexey Borovkov raised to 225,000 from the cutoff and Patrik Antonius three-bet to 750,000 out of the small blind. Borovkov four-bet ripped it four around 3,200,000, and Antonius snap-called.
Alexey Borovkov: 9♠9♦ 
Patrik Antonius: K♣K♥
Borovkov started the day as the chip leader and was now likely to be the next casualty of the Main Event.
The 2♥5♥5♠ flop didn't change anything, and neither did the 4♣ on the turn.
Borovkov needed to spike a two-outer on the river to crack Antonius' kings.
It wasn't to be as the Q♦ completed the board and Borovkov was out in 12th, while Antonius became the new chip leader.
