Aleksandr Faterin Eliminated in 14th Place ($51,525)

Nível 27 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Aleksandr Faterin jammed for 540,000 from the button. Kenny Hallaert folded in the small blind.

"Oh shit," exclaimed Yugay, and he snap-called.

Aleksandr Faterin: A♣10♥
Victor Yugay: A♦A♥

Yugay's expletive was justified as he had the chance to bring the tournament to 13 players as well as securing the next pay jump.

The 8♣7♦2♦ flop saw Faterin leave his seat while Hallaert told him that "a nine is good."

Coincidentally, the 9♥ came on the turn to give Faterin some hope but the 10♣ river marked the end of his deep run.
