With players heads up on a board reading 3♣7♥K♥10♥ and a sizable pot already brewing, Nihat Karyagdi checked and Khatanbaataqr Khandsuren bet 3,500. Karyagdi moved all in for approximately 30,000 and Khandsuren called, covering his opponent just slightly.
Nihat Karyagdi: A♥J♥
Khatanbaataqr Khandsuren: 3♠3♦
Both players had caught a big piece of the board, with Khandsuren having flopped a set while Karyagdi had turned the nut-flush. The board failed to pair on the J♣ river and Karyagdi secured a full early double up while Khandsuren was left with just over ten big blinds.
