Alexander Kostritsyn Eliminates Tom McEvoy

On the button Alexander Kostritsyn raised to 3,600 and Tom McEvoy moved all in for his last 8,000. Kostritsyn made the call and showed the {A-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}, while McEvoy held the {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}. The {3-Spades}{4-Clubs}{8-Hearts} flop hit Kostritsyn, and the {4-Spades} on the turn hit McEvoy where it hurts. The {7-Clubs} brought no help and McEvoy was eliminated from tonight's event. Kostritsyn now has 120,000.
