Alexander Savchenko Eliminated in 5th Place ($51,511)
Level 40
: Blinds 1,000,000/2,000,000, 2,000,000 ante
Joey Couden opened to 4,000,000, and next to act, Alexander Savchenko, moved all in for 7,700,000. Action folded back to Couden, who snap-called and turned his cards over.
Alexander Savchenko: A♦J♦ 
Joey Couden: A♠A♣
There was some hope on the flop for Savchenko when the dealer fanned out K♦K♥Q♥.
The 9♠ turn and 8♦ river were no help to him, though, and he vacated his seat as Couden pulled in yet another pot.
