Imad Derwiche, who was made short in an earlier hand, moved all in for his last 100 from under the gun. Victor Ilyukhin, to his left, raised to 300, receiving calls from the button and both the blinds.

The action checked to Alfonso Simone, in the big blind, who led out for 300 on the K♦Q♦Q♥ flop. Ilyukhin raised to 1,000, the button folded and Aviv Meiri cold called in the small blind. Simone also called.

The 10♠ turn checked through to the 2♣ on the river. Meiri bet out 2,700, Simone folded and Ilyukhin made the call.

Imad Derwiche: 8♦5♥ All in
Victor Ilyukhin: A♥K♠
Aviv Meiri: Q♠4♥

Meiri's trips won this hand and sent Derwiche to the rail.
