A "Donation to the Austrian Community"

Level 18 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Vladimir Minko from the big blind and Christopher Nguyen from early position were tangled in a big pot with around 1,000,000 in the middle by the river.

With the completed board reading AAQ10J, Minko checked to Nguyen who jammed for around 800,000 effective as the covering stack. Minko would burn through all five of his remaining time banks before he announced, "Alright, donation to the Austrian community," as he put in the call.

Vladimir Minko: A4 All in
Christopher Nguyen: AK

Nguyen was always in good shape with the better kicker as both players flopped trips. Nguyen improved to a straight on the river and Minko could not get away as he hit the exit.

At another table, Kristen Foxen was also eliminated
