Alexander Sokolovsky Eliminated in 12th Place (€68,050)

Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Pedro Marques raised to 120,000 from early position and Alexander Sokolovsky three-bet jammed for 890,000 from the cutoff. After it folded back to Marques, he called to put Sokolovsky at risk.
Alexander Sokolovsky: K?K?
Pedro Marques: A?K?
Sokolovsky was in a great position to double-up if he could fade an ace or some hearts. The 7?3?Q? flop kept Sokolovsky ahead with his Cowboys. The 6? turn meant only an ace on the river would end his Main Event. A brutal A? dropped on the river to give Marques the winner, and send Sokolovsky to the cashier's desk in twelfth place
