Salman Behbehani Eliminated
Alex Bilokur opened under the gun plus one to 2,500 and got no less than four callers: Salman Behbehani in the cutoff, Benny Spindler on the button, Marvin Rettenmaier (who just bought back in) in the small blind, and Aleksei Platonov in the big blind.
Rettenmaier checked the 
flop but Platonov bet out 4,500. Initial raiser Bilokur folded, but Behbehani raised it up to 11,000. Spindler and Rettenmaier now folded and Platonov resolutely shoved all in for about 27,000 total. Behbehani made the call and they turned their cards on their backs.
Salman Behbehani: 
Aleksei Platonov: 
The 
on the turn didn't change anything and neither did the 
on the river. Behbehani thought that he was out but in fact had 1,400 left.
That went in the next hand. Someone in front of him raised to 3,000 and Behbehani shoved his remaining 1,200 in. The big blind called and a side pot was created.
Eventually the initial raiser would bet on the turn after having checked the flop, forcing out the big blind. The board read 
by then and the big blind showed 
. Behbehani opened his cards and said "It wás a race. At least I can say I went out on a flip" as he tabled 
.
The 
on the river wasn't the six Behbehani was looking for and the American player made his exit.
