Ali Eslami: XxXx/10♣6♦A♥9♠/Xx
Alexander Kostritsyn completed and Ali Eslami called.
Eslami called a bet from Kostritsyn on fourth street and then led out for a bet after catching an ace on fifth. Kostritsyn raised and Eslami called.
Eslami check-called bets from Kostritsyn on sixth and seventh, and Kostritsyn tabled two kings in the hole for a set. Eslami mucked his hand and was left with a single T-25,000 chip behind.
"This would make a hell of a chip and a chair story," Eslami said.
Ali Eslami: 10♠2♦/3♣8♥6♣9♦/6♠
Alexander Kostritsyn: A♦6♠/9♣9♥10♥J♠/10♦
Eslami managed to double on the very next hand, but on the following hand, Eslami was forced all in again and drew to a pair of sixes while Kostritsyn drew to two pair to eliminate Eslami and put an end to the tournament.
