: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Aleksandr Kirichenko raised from early position to 13,000 with Alexandros Kolonias calling from the cutoff, and Oleg Ustinovich defended his big blind.

The 9♦ turn checked through for the 5♥ to fall on the river. Ustinovich checked and Kirichenko fired out a bet of 230,000. Kolonias folded, but Ustinovich reluctantly called. Kirichenko showed the winner with A♠J♠ for a turn straight, and the pot was sent to him.
