Level 15 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Mekan Yusupov was all-in from late position for less than 25,000 and was called by Arthur Thiriart in the big blind, who had him covered as players flipped their cards.

Mekan Yusupov: K♠Q♦ All in
Arthur Thiriart: 3♦2♠

The board ran out Q♠10♣K♥K♣J♦ and Yusopov made two pair on the flop and a full house on the turn.

"Chop, chop...", said a neutral player.

Thiriart had clearly been playing for the bounty, which had just come into play, but it cost him a big chunk of his stack, which went over to Yusupov for the double up.
