Vivek Rajkumar Eliminated in 5th Place (£3,000,000)

Level 22 : 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Elimination Vivek Rajkumar
Elimination Vivek Rajkumar

Hand #91: Bryn Kenney opened to 700,000 from the cutoff with {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} and Vivek Rajkumar moved all in for 4,325,000. Kenney checked his cards again to make sure they were the same and instantly called the all-in with his rockets.

Vivek Rajkumar: {a-Spades}{8-Spades}
Bryn Kenney: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

A flop of {10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades} came down on the turn and Rajkumar was in rough shape. The {3-Diamonds} fell on the turn and Rajkumar's slim hope of cracking aces had now disappeared as he was drawing dead to the {8-Clubs} river card.

Kenney pulled in the pot, overtaking the chip lead, sending Rajkumar out in fifth place for a respectable £3,000,000.
