Armen Atanesyan moved all in from the hi-jack for his last 56,000 and Iliya Yorch moved in from the cut-off for a little more and the remaining players folded.
Earlier in the tournament right around the money bubble Atanesyan got to the river of a hand all in whereupon it was discovered he had three hole cards. He was eliminated and subsequently reinstated and instead of busting for nothing was is still in with 47 players left but at risk of elimination.
Atanesyan: 
Yorch: 
Yorch stood up and filmed his fate on his phone while Atanesyan stayed in his seat.
The board ran out 
.
Gasps all round as they chopped it up. Atanesyan grinned and shook the hand of Yorch.
Atanesyan has now locked up at least RUB 150,000.
