Bakhous Joumaa opened to 5,500 from middle position and a player in the hijack three-bet to 16,000. Anatoly Karochenskiy moved all in for approximately 65,000 and Jakub Michalak five-bet shoved for roughly 125,000, folding out all other players to leave Korochenskiy at risk.

Anatoly Korochenskiy: 88
Jakub Michalak: KK

Michalak's kings held on the Q997K runout and he collected a healthy pot while Korochenskiy was sent to the rail.
