Sayonara Sokolovsky
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Anh Nguyen opened to 200,000 from the cutoff. Jacob Gagnon called on the button before Alexander Sokolovsky went all in for 930,000 from the big blind. Nguyen folded, but Gagnon made the call to put Sokolovsky at risk.
Alexander Sokolovsky: A♥10♥
Jacob Gagnon: K♠Q♠
Sokolovsky was ahead preflop, and the flop kept it that way when it came 3♠8♠10♦, but Gagnon gained outs with a flush draw.
The turn was an ace, but not the suit Sokolovsky wanted to see when the A♠ peeled to give Gagnon the nuts.
The J♥ was the final card Sokolovsky would see as he exited the tournament.
