Puchkov Triples But Karamalikis the Big Winner
Clement Bonin raised to 12,000 from middle position and received a call from Australian Jonathan Karamalikis, who was directly to his left. A short-stacked Konstantin Puchkov called from the big blind, and it was three-way action to the 
flop.
Puchkov was first to act and moved all in for 36,000, which Bonin raised to 73,000. Karamalikis responded by moving all in, and Bonin called off for 291,000.
Showdown
Bonin: 
Karamalikis: 
Puchkov: 
It was an action flop to say the least as all three players hit big. Puchkov flopped top pair with a flush draw, Bonin a set, and Karamalikis the nuts. The 
turn gave Puchkov the said flush, while the 
blanked on the river. Puchkov tripled, though he is still short, while Karamalikis eliminated Bonin and collected the sizable side pot.
