Blinds: 400,000/800,000
Veerab Zakarian (pictured above) was under the gun, and Andrew Ostapchenko in the big blind, when we saw the two tangling in a already decent pot, on a board showing [Ac][9h][3d][5c]. Ostapchenko checked to Zakarian, who bet 4,000,000. Ostapchenko called, and the river [10d] completed the board.
Ostapchenko checked again, and Zakarian thought for almost a minute before shoving all in for about 13,000,000. Ostapchenko quickly called with [Ah][9s] for two pair, and Zakarian could only flash [Ax][Kx] for top pair before sending those cards in and hitting the payout desk.
With that, just five remain, with Ostapchenko holding a nice lead over the rest of the field, holding nearly half the chips in play.
