Level 8
: 400/800, 800 ante
Denis Sapozhinikov had a great start to the tournament after eliminating Mikhail Galitskiy near the beginning of the day. Since then his stack has gone from strength to strength and he is out in front with three levels of the day to go.
He has been applying pressure to the table well and just took a pot on the turn with 
down, in a hand against Ihar Koshal. The flop had gone check-check but Sapozhinikov check-raised Koshal all-in on the turn when he bet 3,000 of his 6,000 stack. Koshal quickly folded and is left extremely short.
