Abilkassym and Kudinov Eliminated
Level 15
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Nursultan Abilkassym moved all in with 
and was drawing dead on the turn after table neighbor Zdenek Mach's 
scored the first knockout of the day.
A few tables over, fellow short stack Viktor Kudinov was the next to fall. Aleksandr Merzhvinskiy opened to 160,000 and Kudinov shoved. Gurgen Mkhitaryan from one seat over called, but folded to the 1.2 million reraise by Merzhvinsky.
Kudinov showed 
and had two live cards against the 
of Merzvhinskiy, however the nine-high board provided no help.
