Iermolcheva Scores Elimination in Four-Bet Pot, Crosses Million Chip Mark

Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Olga Iermolcheva raised to 32,000 from late position and the player to her immediate left three-bet to 88,000 on the button.
Iermolcheva thought for a moment and put in a four-bet to 175,000, which was called after some deliberation.
Iermolcheva continued on the Q?9?7? flop for 80,000 and her opponent promptly moved all-in, with Iermolcheva quickly calling.
Button Player: A?5?
Olga Iermolcheva: K?K?
It was a race, as Iermolcheva's kings would need to fade hearts and aces to score the knock-out and fortunately, the runout was clean in the form of a 2? turn and 10? river, delivering the elimination and elevating Iermolcheva to one of the top stacks in the room.
