Arkadiusz Golaszewski opened to 5,000 from under the gun and received calls from Seyedamir Eftekhari in the hijack, Ahmen Slimen on the button, Mohammad Awamleh in the small blind and Maxime Chilaud in the big blind.
All five players checked the 9♣8♦2♥ flop leading to the 7♦ turn. Awamleh bet 15,000 and received calls from Chilaud and Slimen while Golaszewski and Eftekhari got out of the way.
The three remaining players checked the 9♦ river. Chilaud showed down 7♥6♦ for two pair while Slimen tabled 8♣7♥ for a better two pair to take down a healthy pot despite having been counterfeited on the river.

Doe could only show A♥10♦ for a bluff while Babayev tabled K♦J♥ for trip jacks to scoop a gargantuan pot worth nearly 200 big blinds.
