Steven Kelly shoved all in for around 355,000 on the river with a runout of 8♦A♦4♣7♣4♠. This sent his heads up opponent, Kyriakos Papadopoulos, into the tank.
Papadopoulos made the call and the players both flipped their hands. Papadopoulos showed Ax2x for a pair of aces, but Kelly had two pair with A♣7♥ to scoop the pot.
The heads-up players went back to nearly level pegging after the hand.
