Steve Topakas Eliminated

Not number one today

Eugene Katchalov opened to 3,000 from under the gun, and was met with three callers before Steve Topakas moved all in for his last 21,700 from the big blind.

Katchalov eyed up his opponents with a few glares before making it 40,000 to go, which quickly prompted three folds.

Katchalov: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Topakas: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The board ran out {4-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Topakas hit the rail as Katchalov climbed to 268,000 in chips.
