Mikalai Vaskaboinikau Eliminated in 3rd Place ($490,000)
Level 26
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
A hand after the elimination of Kirill Shcherbakov, Mikalai Vaskaboinikau moved all in for 3,625,000 from the button and Ottomar Ladva called in the big blind.
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: 8♠8♥
Ottomar Ladva: A♥A♦
Ladva was the one to pick up aces this time, and he wouldn't be at much risk of having them cracked as the A♣Q♣4♣ flop improved him to top set. The 7♥ turn sealed Vaskaboinikau's set, and he headed off to the rail after the 9♥ river.
