Soulier and Murthy Eliminated

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

Fabrice Soulier defended his big blind against a raise by Dario Sammartino and check-raised the flop of {7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{2-Clubs} for his last 10,000 with {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Sammartino called with {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and held up thanks to the {2-Hearts} turn and {Q-Clubs} river.

One table over, Neel Murthy shoved for around 15,000 with the {A-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Sam Grafton reshoved in the cutoff with {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}. The board came {J-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}{Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} and that was it for Murthy, who won't be able to re-enter after busting on his second bullet.

The vacant seat was filled with a big stack, but no player next to it. Apparently, Oleksii Khoroshenin had already vanished before the last hands of the night and may very well be the chip leader.
