Anatoly Nikitin Eliminated in 5th Place ($111,270)
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Anatoly Nikitin's tournament run came to an end after he raised from the cutoff and was faced with a jam by Tsz Ho Chau from the small blind. Nikitin took some time to take an inventory of his chips and survey the situation before he threw in a call.
Anatoly Nikitin: A♥J♠
Tsz Ho Chau: 4♠4♦
Chau held a slight lead over Nikitin with his pocket fours, but the 10♦Q♦9♣ flop gave Nikitin plenty of outs to double.
However, the 6♠ turn and the 7♠ river were not any of those outs sending Nikitin to the cage.
