The flop went J♠8♣4♣ and Mekouane check-called Appalaraju's continuation for 59,000. On the K♥ turn, Mekouane checked again and Appalaraju fired 165,000. Mekouane shoved and Appalaraju snap-called, at risk for a remaining stack around 190,000.
Jampana Appalaraju: A♣Q♣ 
Jalil Mekouane: K♦J♦
Mekouane had hit two pair and the river 3♦ bricked to send Appalaraju to the payout desk.
