on a

{9-Clubs}

, called, and no miracle straight for Slifka on the {7-Diamonds}

{7-Diamonds}

river and Rybachenko was heads up with Paul Ferner.

With just 60,000 or so to Rybachenko's 240,000, it didn't take long for Ferner to get his chips in. All in with {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

on a

{9-Diamonds}

{Q-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

flop, Rybachenko was ahead with the {Q-Diamonds}

and stayed ahead through the {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

turn and

{K-Spades}

river to knock out Ferner and be the first player to be assured a place at the final table tomorrow.
