The flop was {2-Spades}{j-Spades}{8-Diamonds} and Merzhvinskiy check-called a 300,000 bet from Myshkin.

The turn was the {4-Spades} and it was a 450,000 bet this time from Myshkin. A call from Merzhvinskiy saw the {3-Clubs} hit the river and Myshkin bet 1,200,000.

A bit of a dwell up then Merzhvinskiy called.
Myshkin showed {a-Spades}{7-Spades}.

“Nuts,” Alexsandr Denisov said.

Aleksandr Merzhvinskiy Doubles Through Valentin Zolotilov

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Easy come, easy go.

Aleksandr Merzhvinskiy moved all in on the river of a board reading {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Spades} and Zolotilov called.

Merzhvinskiy had the {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} full house and Zolotilov the mere {a-Clubs}{10-Spades}.

Kirill Denisenko Eliminated in 8th Place (770,000 RUB)

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante

Kirill Denisenko

On a flop of {a-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{q-Clubs} Kirill Denisenko led out from the small blind for 600,000 and after some thought Valentin Zolotilov moved all in with Denisenko quickly calling.

Zolotilov: {4-Spades}{4-Clubs}
Denisenko: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Denisenko had flopped top two pair and looked to have a lock on the hand to double up.

The turn was the {5-Clubs} and the river the {10-Clubs} to bring a running four-card flush for Zolotilov to gasps of disbelief.

Denisenko was out in eighth.
