After limping preflop, the board was {q-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} when Alexander "losingplayer" Farin check-raised to 64,000 after faced with a bet of 16,000 from "chessminds".

"Chessminds" made the call and the two went to a turn {j-Clubs}.

Farin then check-raised a second time to 185,910 and all in after "chessminds" bet 64,000.

"Chessminds" quickly made the call and the cards were tabled, with Farin at risk.

Alexander "losingplayer" Farin: {2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}
"chessminds": {k-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

Up against a king-high flush from chessminds, Farin needed either a deuce or a four to hit a full house, but the river {3-Clubs} bricked and he was eliminated as "chessminds" was pushed the large pot.
