Joni Jouhkimainen Eliminated in 8th Place ($57,000)
Level 22
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Aren Bezhanyan raised to 160,000 from middle position before Joni Jouhkimainen three-bet the pot to 690,000 from the next seat. When it got back to Bezhanyan, he called and the dealer fanned out the Q♥5♠9♣ flop.
Bezhanyan started with a check, and Jouhkimainen announced a bet of 1,450,000. Bezhanyan quickly jammed, and Jouhkimainen called to put himself at risk.
Joni Jouhkimainen: A♠A♦Q♠3♣ 
Aren Bezhanyan: A♥Q♦9♠4♥
Jouhkimainen had aces, but he'd been outflopped by the top two pair of Bezhanyan.
Bezhanyan moved in further ahead on the 7♥ turn by picking up a flush draw. The 9♥ arrived on the river to give Bezhanyan a boat, and Jouhkimainen was the next to hit the rail in eigth place.
