In the opening hand, Giorgii Skhulukhiia kicked things off with a raise to 700. Kazi Bairamukov in the small blind and Bobby James in the big blind both called.
The flop came down 7♥8♦J♥, and everyone checked.
On the turn, the 5♣ hit, and Bairamukov led out with a bet of 1,500, which both players called.
When the 5♦ landed on the river, Bairamukov checked again. James then took the initiative with a bet of 3,000. Skhulukhiia thought it over before raising to 10,300. Bairamukov folded, but James took his time before making the call. Skhulukhiia revealed 7♠5♠ for a full house, leaving James with just 200 chips. James later told PokerNews he had J♦9♥, but he didn’t show.
In the next hand, James was in the small blind and effectively all in from the start with only 200 chips left. Mehmet Demirkol in the cutoff raised to 700, and Bairamukov, now on the button, called. James pushed all in for his last 100.
The flop brought 6♣4♣4♠, and Demirkol check-called Bairamukov’s 1,500 bet.
The turn was the K♠, and Demirkol again checked. Bairamukov bet 5,000, and Demirkol called.
On the river, 7♠, Demirkol checked once more, and Bairamukov went all in for 20,000. Demirkol went deep into the tank but ultimately folded. Since James was all in, they went to a showdown. James revealed A♦10♣ for ace-high, but Bairamukov showed A♠K♥ for two pair, taking down the pot and eliminating James from the tournament.

With the news that the Power Path is now a permanent addition to PokerStars, and that players can receive a $0.50 Step 1 Power Path ticket every single day as part of the new PokerStars Rewards program, there's never been a better time to have a look at how the Power Path can reward you and where it can take you.
Both live and online events have featured in the Power Path since its launch last summer, with Special Edition Gold Passes sending lucky players to the NAPT and Las Vegas Grand Prix last December.
This month, we look at the various Passes on offer, including both Gold and Silver Passes for the NAPT festival in Las Vegas, the Women's Winter Festival and the European Poker Tour stop in Prague.

Almaz Kenzhinov opened the action with a raise to 500 from under the gun. Hasan Fahriogullari called from the small blind, but Vako Shekerdemian in the big blind had other plans, putting in a three-bet of 1,500. Both Kenzhinov and Fahriogullari called.
On the 3♣5♠9♣ flop, Shekerdemian led out with a bet of 2,100, which Kenzhinov called while Fahriogullari folded.
The 3♥ turn saw Shekerdemian fire another 2,000, and Kenzhinov called once again.
On the 4♦ river, Shekerdemian continued his aggression with a 2,100 bet, but this time Kenzhinov raised to 6,000. Shekerdemian quickly called. Kenzhinov revealed J♣J♥ for an overpair, but Shekerdemian tabled K♥K♦ for a better one, scooping the pot and leaving Kenzhinov shaking his head at the unlucky showdown.
