Aliaksei Boika opened from under the gun with A♦9♠, and Mykhailo Ostash defended his big blind.
The 10♥K♠5♠ flop went check-check, and after the 8♦ hit the turn, Ostash checked again.

The river brought the 8♠, and both players checked it down. At showdown, Ostash revealed A♠Q♥ to claim the pot with a better ace-high.
