Split Pot Saves Nikiforov

Ilya Nikiforov was almost eliminated from the Main Event on the very last hand before the break. He found himself all in with [Ad6s] against the [As9c] of Gianluca Speranza and in pretty bad shape.

However the board ran out [Kh4d4h5d]……[Ks]. The river double-pairing the board so both players held kings and fours with an ace kicker.

Nikiforov survives.
