Skhirtladze Runs Into Boulton's Kings
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Tamazi Skhirtladze raised to 3,000 under the gun before Joshua Boulton three-bet to 7,000 in middle position. As action folded back around to Skhirtladze, the dealer informed Neil Channing he didn't put in enough to pay the small blind.
"I only pay half. That's how I've survived this long," Channing joked. Skhirtladze then four-bet to 15,000, Boulton moved all in, and Skhirtladze called for 30,000.
Tamazi Skhirtladze: A♦Q♥ 
Joshua Boulton: K♠K♥
Skhirtladze was already up from his seat as the flop came 7♣6♥10♥. The 4♥ came on the turn, while the river was the 6♠ and he was sent to the rail.
"I would've gotten away with it if she wasn't so picky," Channing told table neighbor Benjamin Gros after the hand.
