Holden Finishes Off Zaichenko

We didn't catch the hand as it happened, but Sam Holden informed us of Andrey Zaichenko's. According to last year's November Niner, Zaichenko shipped his stack under the gun with {5-}{5-}. Holden, who was next to act, then looked down at {Q-}{Q-} and made the call. The board ran out dry for Zaichenko, and he made his way to the payout desk just shy of the first break.
