Timofey Kuznetsov:
Rainer Kempe:

"The king will come," Kuznetsov joked, as suited kings had been good to the Russian on Day 1. One of the victims of Kuznetsov's hot run was Winfred Yu and he was there to sweat the showdown.

The flop fell and nothing changed. On the turn, Kuznetsov asked if he was allowed to squeeze the river. The request was denied, and a blank river eliminated Kuznetsov in 5th place for HK$ 708,000. Yu walked over to Seidel and Kempe, jokingly thanked them. Kuznetsov didn't mind though, and left with a smile on the face.
