Defending Champion Mokrani Eliminated

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

The defending champion has his marching orders!
Mohamed Mokrani raised to 160,000 and was faced with a three-bet of 350,000 from Ionut-Alexandru Moldovan. Mokrani then shoved for around 1,000,000, and Moldovan quickly called.
Mohamed Mokrani: 10?10?
Ionut-Alexandru Moldovan: A?Q?
Mokrani knows better than most that you need to win flips to win tournaments, and this one went against him as Moldovan paired his queen on the 5?6?Q?9?6? runout.
