Vladimar Shashkov opened to 2,500 from under-the-gun, receiving calls from Denis Timofeev, and the player in the button. Vladislav Tonkikh shoved from the small blind for about 8,000, getting calls from all three players.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}, and Shashkov jammed for 68,400. Just Timofeev called their hands were tabled.

Timofeev: {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Tonkikh: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Shashkov: {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}

Everyone still had a chance to ship the pot. The {a-Spades} on the turn gave the lead to Tonkikh but Timofeev was still best for the side pot. The {2-Hearts} completed the board and Shashkov were eliminated. Tonkikh got a much-needed boost to his count and Timofeev scooped a huge side pot.
