Ray Sumon raised to 28,000 from the early position and was called by Nikita Kalinin and Ludovic Geilich in the blinds.

The flop came {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, Kalinin and Geilich both checked. Sumon continued with a bet of 35,000 and Kalinin made the call. Geilich raised to 117,000 and now only Sumon made the call.

The turn was the {4-Clubs} and Geilich bet 198,000. Sumon took a few seconds but then decided to announce he was all-in. Geilich snap-called with {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the flopped flush while Sumon held {6-Spades}{6-Clubs} for the flopped set. Geilich just needed to avoid the board pairing up.

The {9-Clubs} completed the board on the river for Geilich to hold. Geilich stack was being counted first and the dealer determined he had 844,000 behind. She then started counting Sumon's stack but he had around 670,000 so he was sent to the rail.
