Dmitry Gromov opened under the gun for 100,000, and action folded to Nicolas Chouity in the small blind. The start of day chip leader made it 240,000, and Igor Devkin thought about it in the small blind. He announced all in, for what looked like 800,000. Gromov folded, Chouity insta called.

Igor Devkin: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Nicolas Chouity: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

Gromov said he folded an ace, and expected one on the river to pop up. In the meantime Devkin needed a queen or some other help, but wouldn't get it: {3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{A-Spades}.

Gromov had his hands in the air as he would have won the hand, but that made no difference for Devkin and Chouity of course. Devkin departed in 6th place, Chouity has around 3.7 million.
