Tyler Brown limped on the button and Nikolaos Lampropoulos did so in the small blind. Yuri Dzivielevski then potted to 600,000 in the big blind and both opponents folded.
One hand later, Lampropoulos opened to 375,000 on the button. Dzivielevski reraised the pot once more and made it 1,275,000 to go. It folded back to Lampropoulos, who reluctantly called after using one time bank extension.
The 9♠6♠3♦ flop brought the shove of Dzivielevski for 850,000 after a few seconds of consideration and Lampropoulos first asked for the exact amount prior to the size of the pot.
"Two point eight million," Dzivielevski replied instantly.
Lampropoulos mulled it over for a few more seconds as he ran through all possible combos, then placed a single chip for the call.
Yuri Dzivielevski: A♥Q♠9♥2♠
Nikolaos Lampropoulos: A♦Q♣J♦3♣
Dzivielevski was way out in front with the superior pair and flush draw. The K♥ turn gave his opponent a gutshot but it was the unlikely J♣ river that knocked out Dzivielevski in agonising fashion.
"Nice hand," was all he said before heading to the payout desk while Lampropoulos soared further ahead on the leaderboard. On the stone-cold money bubble, the Greek had been the odds-on favourite to bust with just one big blind as confirmed by several of the other finalists.
