Alexander Ivanov got his last 16,500 into the middle preflop from the small blind, with Aleksandr Razinkov making the call from the button to try and bust him.
Alexander Ivanov : K?Q? 
Aleksandr Razinkov : A?J?
Ivanov was behind and needed to find some help from the dealer, or he would be likely making a trip to the rebuy desk to get a fresh starting stack. The board ran out Q?7?4?7?K? to give Ivanov the winner with two pair, and he stayed alive in the event.
