Alexander Ivanov got his last 16,500 into the middle preflop from the small blind, with Aleksandr Razinkov making the call from the button to try and bust him.
Alexander Ivanov : K?Q?
Aleksandr Razinkov : A?J?
Ivanov was behind and needed to find some help from the dealer, or he would be likely making a trip to the rebuy desk to get a fresh starting stack. The board ran out Q?7?4?7?K? to give Ivanov the winner with two pair, and he stayed alive in the event.

The flop showed 7?K?8? and there were around 20,000 chips in the pot. Aleksandar Tomovic was first to act in the big blind, and put out a bet of 7,000. Alexandru Papazian called on the button to see at least a turn.
The J? dropped on the turn and both players opted to check for the K? to land on the river. The action checked through again and Tomovic flipped over ace-high with A?Q?. Papazian had that beat with a pair of eights holding 10?8?.
