Ruslan Kulibaba opened the hijack and Paul Esau three-bet to 130,000 from the cutoff. When it got back to Kulibaba, he put in a four-bet to 290,000, only for Esau to five-bet to 450,000. Kulibaba called.
The flop came 6♦5♥2♣ and after Kulibaba checked, Esau put out a small bet of 165,000.
It took just two seconds for Kulibaba to let his cards go, which earned Esau the pot.
