Russians Duke It Out

We stumbled upon a considerable pot with a board reading {J-Hearts}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts}. Andrey Pateychuk was in the big blind and moved all in for 937,000, which Vladimir Geshkenbein called from middle position, creating a pot of around 3.4 million.

Showdown
Geshkenbein: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Pateychuk: {6-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

Geshkenbein had flopped middle set, but Pateychuk turned the nut straight. The latter managed to double to 3.4 million while the former was reduced to 610,000.
