Sukhov Busts First Hand Back From Break
The restart to Level 19 was delayed slightly as a table had to be broken and the players heading to the stream tabled had to get mic'd up, however, on some tables, dealing had already started. The floor announced to stop dealing on all tables, but the hands that had already been dealt were not declared as misdeals.
Play then resumed with Yevhen Sukhov already all-in from the button for his stack of 217,000. Pawel Wojciechowski looked down at his cards from the big blind and liked what he saw, then called to put Sukhov at risk.
Yevhen Sukhov: 7♦7♣ 
Pawel Wojciechowski: A♦J♦
It was a flip that Sukhov needed to win, but he got off to a bad start on the J♠A♠5♦ flop as Wojciechowski hit top two pair. A 9♦ on the turn left Sukhov with just one more chance to survive, but he was already on his feet.
"You stood up already?!" asked Wojciechowski to Sukhov.
The stand-up equity didn't help Sukhov, though, as the 9♥ river meant he was eliminated in the first hand back from the break.
