Kevin Killeen Eliminated in 6th Place (�9,400)
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Kevin Killeen raised to 500,000 under the gun and Vitalijs Polukejevs three-bet to 1,150,00 from the cutoff. After it folded back to Killeen, he four-bet shoved for 3,175,000 and Polukejevs snap-called.
Kevin KilleenL 9?9?
Vitalijs Polukejevs: A?K?
Polukejevs would move into an overwhelming chip lead if he could win this flip, whereas Killeen needed to win to stay in contention for the trophy.
The J?Q?J? flop gave Polukejevs a lot more outs he could hit to win. The A? on the turn was one of those outs, as he improved to top pair and could only lose a nine on the river. The 10? came to give Polukejevs a straight, and Killeen was out in sixth.
