The match between Eugene Katchalov and Dario Sammartino had gone back and forth, with both doubling up and doubling down more than once. Just now the match ended though, with another lucky turn to make the difference.

Katchalov had a slight advantage in chips, and pushed all in from the button. Dario Sammartino made the call from the big blind.

Eugene Katchalov: {10-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}
Dario Sammartino: {Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}

The flop came {2-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and didn't do anything for anyone. The {J-Spades} on the turn made all the difference, giving Katchalov a huge edge going to the river. The {K-Hearts} on the river was a blank and Katchalov and Sammartino shook hands.
