Vadim Guk Eliminated in 5th Place (�13,550)
Level 24
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Anders Bjorkheim raised to 160,000 with the K?10? and Keimo Suominen called with the 9?9? in the next seat. Vadim Guk jammed the big blind with the A?9? for 780,000 and both his opponents called.
The two active players checked to the J?6?4?K?Q? river, on which Bjorkheim bet 450,000 with his top pair. Suominen reluctantly folded and Guk was sent to the payout desk in fifth place for �13,550, while Bjorkheim soared further ahead of the competition with four players remaining.
