All In and a Call!

Alexander Dovzhenko limped in from the button for the first time in heads-up play. Maxim Lykov tapped the felt, and the cheap flop rolled out {2-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {8-Spades}. Lykov checked, and he would call a quick bet of 100,000 from his opponent.

The turn card was the {J-Clubs}, and the action went check-check. The last card off was the {8-Hearts}, and with it came all of the action. Lykov led out with a big overbet of 500,000, and Dovzhenko wasted little time announcing, "All in." Lykov quickly called too, possibly just one showdown away from an EPT title!

But alas, the drama was short lived. Dovzhenko tabled {8-?} {3-?}, and Lykov's {8-?} {Q-?} meant a split pot as both players rivered eights full.

No chips change hands, and it's on to the next shuffle.
