Konstantin Bucherl Eliminated in 4th Place ($214,106)

Konstantin Bucherl, 4th place
Konstantin Bucherl, 4th place

For the second time in just a couple hands, a big preflop raising war between Valdemar Kwaysser and Konstantin Bucherl left the latter all in, this time for a hefty 2.165 million chips. Kwaysser still had that covered, and he had Bucherl dominated when the cards were turned up:

Kwaysser: {A-Spades} {K-Spades}
Bucherl: {A-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}

There was an unfortunate king on the flop for the at-risk player, but he did pick up a gutshot straight draw as it came {3-Diamonds} {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts}. The {8-Diamonds} was a miss, though, and the {4-Hearts} that rivered failed to save Bucherl from the cashier's grasp. He's out in 4th place, but he'll be rewarded with more than $200,000 for his three-day effort
