The shortest stack in the tournament, Russia's Gurgen Melkonyan eventually shoved his remaining 213,000 chips from the button and was called by Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier in the big blind.
Melkonyan: 
Grospellier: 
The dealer opened 
pairing ElkY's queen and leaving very little chance for the Russian to double up. The 
on the turn kept Melkonyan's hopes alive, but the 
on the river wasn't what he needed and the Russian hit the rail.
