W HIGHROLLER ($5,000)

Neng Zhao opened to 30,000 from early position, and Fabian Rolli made the call on the button. Ilya Firstov, sitting in the small blind, moved all in. Zhao quickly folded, but Rolli made the call to put Firstov at risk.

Firstov turned over A♠ T♥ , while Rolli showed 6♣ 6♠, a classic coin flip.

The flop came 6♦ J♠ Q♥ , giving Rolli bottom set and leaving Firstov drawing slim. Only a king would save him, but the turn 3♣ and river J♦ sealed his fate.

Fabian Rolli scored the knockout, eliminating Ilya Firstov from the tournament.

Quang Do opened to 8,000 from utg+1, but the action quickly escalated when Ilya Firstov, in the small blind, put in a massive 3-bet to 104,000 and confidently declared, "I'm putting them all in."

Huu Dung, in the big blind, responded by shoving all in. Quang Do folded.

Firstov tabled A♣ K♦ , dominating Dung’s A♠ J♣ .

The flop came 7♣ Q♣ J♠ , giving Dung a pair of jacks and the lead. The turn was the 4♦, offering no help to Firstov. But the river brought the K♥ , giving Firstov top pair with top kicker to win the pot.

Dung was eliminated from the tournament but didn’t stay gone for long. He immediately rebought and returned to the same table, in the same seat, ready to battle again.
