Konakchiev Eliminated by Chalot
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Eric Wasserson raised to 60,000 from under the gun and Benjamin Chalot three-bet to 225,000 on the button. Out of the small blind, Valentino Konakchiev pushed for around one million and Wasserson folded while Chalot called instantly.
Valentino Konakchiev: A♠Q♠ 
Benjamin Chalot: A♣K♠
The K♣7♦2♥ flop left Konakchiev on the ropes and in need of running cards to survive. One of them came with the 10♣ turn but the 5♣ river provided no help, propelling Chalot further up the leaderboard.
