Maksim Tatarintsev has played the role of a knockout artist as he scored a double knockout to trim the field down to seven.
Henry Trinidad jammed from under the gun before Tatrintsev made the call. Jeff Burquist decided he wanted to play for it all and went all-in for 1,300,000 total, which sent Tatrintsev into the tank. After some deliberation, Tatrintsev called to put both Trinidad and Burquist at risk.
Henry Trinidad: K♣Q♠
Jeff Burquist: A♣A♠
Maksim Tatarintsev: 8♦8♣

The flop was safe for aces as it came 5♦3♥7♦, but the J♦ turn gave Tatrintsev a flush draw.
Burquist was dismayed to see the K♦ river, which improved Tatrintsev to a flush to score the double knockout.
