Level 24
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Ivan Tikhov made the pay jump with the bustout of Jan-Willem Nijmeijer and immediately put in his last 20,000 from middle position. Catalin Pop called in the hijack, while Marco Di Persio checked the big blind.
Pop bet 100,000 on the K♠7♠7♥ flop, and Di Persio folded.
Ivan Tikhov: A♦10♦ 
Catalin Pop: A♣A♥
Pop had woken up with aces and had Tikhov drawing thin going to the turn, which was the K♣. The 7♦ fell on the river and Tikhov was eliminated in 23rd place.
