Chance Kornuth, with 3,500,000 behind, raised to 2,800,000 from the button. He then called off the remainder of his stack after Alex Kulev moved all in from the big blind.

Chance Kornuth: K♣5♦
Alex Kulev: A♣10♣

The start of day chip leader was the underdog and had one foot out of the door following the Q♣8♣3♠ flop.

The 5♠ turn gave Kornuth the best hand and had him as the favorite for the double-up. However, Kulev paired up on the 10♦ river to lock up the hand and seal the bust-out.

Chance Kornuth (@ChancesCards) was sent on a wild ride on his way to elimination in the @WSOP $250,000 Super High Roller.

Niveau 22 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Martin Kabrhel raised to 1,700,000 from late position and Dan Smith pushed all-in for his remaining 5,900,000 from the big blind. Kabrhel made the call.

Dan Smith: A♦Q♦
Martin Kabrhel: 10♦6♦

Smith went in with the best hand and the covering suit, but the 8♣4♣6♥ flop would deliver Kabrhel the lead.

Smith would be unable to catch back up on the 8♥ turn and the K♠ river, sending him to the payout desk, but not before expressing his displeasure with the polarizing antics of Kabrhel.

"Good luck, most of you. I hope you get barred," said Smith while gesturing to Kabrhel.

"What does it mean?" replied Kabrhel.

"Banned," clarified Smith.

"Why?" asked Kabrhel.

"Your antics are the worst of anybody I've ever met. Everyone else is a great player."

"Somebody must be worse," noted Kabrhel, which marked the end of the conversation.

Smith followed that up with more explanation in his bustout interview with @nataliedbode here: https://t.co/9HZ5gRL4hz

Chris Brewer used up several time banks before folding his Q♥8♠ from the cutoff. This meant that short stack Dan Smith would have to pay more in the big blind as the level was going up the following hand.

Martin Kabrhel then raised to 1,200,000 from the button with 6♦5♦. Artur Martirosian called from the big blind with 3♠3♦.

On the 9♦4♦2♥ flop, action checked through to the 4♣ turn, which kept Martiroisian out in front. He then led out for 1,500,000 and Kabrhel called.

The 6♥ river gave Kabrhel the best hand. Kabrhel called for 1,500,000 and put a dent in Martirosian's stack.
