A Sudden Flurry of Eliminations
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
When the action was caught, the pot had already been rewarded, but Kiryl Kyrliuk was left with no chips when his A♦J♦ could not win against A♠K♠ on 8♣K♦A♣A♥2♦.
One hand later on the same table, Michael Rocco opened from under the gun before Stoyan Madanzhiev three-bet jammed his last 250,000 in the middle from the hijack. The action folded back to Rocco, who put in the call.
Stoyan Madanzhiev: A♦J♥
Michael Rocco: J♦J♣
Madanzhiev flopped a flush draw on 4♥3♥9♥, but neither that nor his ace would come in on the 10♦5♦ runout, and he was also eliminated.
Meanwhile, Jens Lakemeier walked away from his table as he had also lost a preflop all-in.
