Nicholas Georgiou open-shoved for 139,000 from UTG+1. Seated right next to him, Georgi Bachiyski shoved for what looked to be a very even stack. The remaining players folded, and the two contestants tabled their cards.
Nicholas Georgiou: A♠J♦
Georgi Bachiyski: A♦K♠
Neither player connected on the 9♥3♣4♠Q♠2♦ board, meaning Bachiyski’s kicker played. The dealer counted the stacks, and it showed that Georgiou had survived by the finest margins, playing 4,000.
On the very next hand, Georgiou was forced all in from the Big Blind. Oliver Evenden opened to 12,000 from the Hi-jack, and Alfie Darby made the call from the Small Blind. Both players checked the 10♣4♣Q♥ flop. Darby bet 10,000 on the 5♥ turn, enough to make Evenden fold. Darby and Georgiou revealed their holdings.
Alfie Darby: K♣Q♣
Nicholas Georgiou: 6♦5♠
The 7♦ river didn’t help Georgiou, and he was eliminated in twenty-sixth place.
Alfie Darby: 374,000
Georgi Bachiynski: 285,000
Nicholas Georgiou: 0
