Viktor Mukhin shoved for his last 16,500 from the button and Ismail Kalkan shoved all in from the small blind. The big blind, who was relatively short stack, folded 
face up.
Viktor Mukhin: 
Ismail Kalkan:
Mukhin stared at the heavens in agony as he was not only dominated but one of his three outs had already been folded.
Despite the odds being stacked against him, the 
was one of the best possible flops for the Russian, giving the Russian a pair and a nut-flush draw.
The 
arrived on the turn and the case 
came on the river, giving Mukhin a very unlikely full house and a full double up.
