Abelmasov Flipped Out By Esau
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Paul Esau raised from the hijack and then called the shove of Igor Abelmasov, who moved all in from the big blind for around 250,000.
Igor Abelmasov: 3♥3♣ 
Paul Esau: A♥Q♣
Abelmasov just lost a huge pot to leave him short-stacked, and now needed to win a flip to stay in contention. A flop of 7♦9♦5♥ got him over half way there, but the Q♠ turn paired Esau.
Only a three on the river could save Abelmasov, but the K♦ wasn't what he was looking for, which left him on the rail.
