Roux Eliminated by Rybachenko

A recovery for Sergey Rybachenko courtesy of his old round two rival Anthony Roux. All in on a {3-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {5-Spades} flop with {7-Clubs} {8-Clubs} against Roux's pocket kings, Rybachenko was rewarded by the poker gods for his brave move by a huge outdraw -- the {7-Hearts} on the turn and the {9-Clubs} sent Roux heading for the rail, and saw Rybachenko catapulted right back up to a massive 190,000, two thirds of the chips in play at his table.
