Aleksi Naski was the early chip leader in the Main Event but is now on crumbs after bleeding chips and losing the most of what was left to Igor Pihela.

After Quoc Ly checked, Pihela fired out for 3,200 into a pot of approximately 18,000 with the Q 6 Q on the board. Naski raised to 10,000 and Ly folded. Pihela tanked for a few moments before he jammed for 33,200. Naski made the quick call for most of his stack and the cards were turned over with Pihela at risk.

Igor Pihela: Q Q

Aleksi Naski: K K

Naski needed some help for his cowboys to be good after Pihela flopped trips. Neither the J turn nor the 6 river provided any relief and Pihela doubled with a full house.

Igor Pihela – 84,000

Aleksi Naski – 3,000
