Shylko First to Depart
Aliaksandr Shylko raised to 2,500 on the button and faced a three-bet to 14,000 from small blind Andrew Ostapchenko. Shylko put in the required chips for a call and the 5♦8♣A♥ flop was dealt.
Ostapchenko slowed down and checked, after which Shylko made a bet of 8,000. Ostapchenko let out a little sigh but stuck in a call anyway.
On the 9♦ turn Ostapchenko check-called again when Shylko sized up to 35,000 chips, after which he checked again on the 10♣ river.
Shylko decided to wager all his chips but a single T-1,000 chip. Ostapchenko made the call within his allocated 30 seconds and Shylko tabled 7♦7♣.
Ostapchenko had made the right call with his A♦6♦ for a pair of aces and doubled up during the first few minutes of play. Shylko, meanwhile, lost his final chip the next hand and quickly vacated the tournament area.
