WSOP Big 50 Champ Runs Into Lilius Buzzsaw
Niveau 26
: 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
After Valentino Konakchiev opened with a raise from the cutoff, WSOP Big 50 bracelet winner Femi Fashakin three-bet to 430,000 from the button.
Taus Lilius then jammed his big stack in from the small blind, Konakchiev folded, and Fashakin quickly called off for approximately 2.2 million total.
Femi Fashakin: 
Taus Lilius: 
Just one hand after eliminating Michael Gathy, Lilius woke up with a monster to put Fashakin on the verge of elimination.
"Wow, what a set-up," Fashakin said as he stood up.
He then watched helplessly as the board ran out 
to send him to the rail in 30th place for $27,860.
