Aleksandr Kirichenko Eliminated in 2nd Place
Level 11
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Aleksandr Kirichenko limped in on the button, and Paulius Vaitekunas checked in the big blind.
Vaitekunas check-called a bet of 15,000 on a J♠4♣7♠ flop and another on the 3♦ turn, this time for 45,000.
When the 8♠ completed the board, Vaitekunas checked once again, and Kirichenko emptied the clip, moving all-in for roughly 180,000. Vaitekunas wasted no time calling, tabling J♦8♦ as he did. Kirichenko could only show 5♣3♠ for a failed bluff, meaning Vaitekunas claimed his third bounty, as well as keeping his own.
