Nikolai Tulin raised from middle position to 6,000, and action was folded around to Faraz Jaka in the big blind who moved all-in for his last 32,500. Tulin snap called.
Faraz Jaka: K♦K♠
Nikolai Tulin: A♦10♦
The 4♠5♥3♦ flop was safe for Jaka, but the 8♦ on the turn gave some concern for the flush. The river bricked out however, with the J♣, and Jaka was shipped the pot.

Timur Margolin was all in preflop and at risk in early position against David Peters in the big blind who had the covering stack.
Timur Margolin: A♥K♣
David Peters: 9♥9♦
It was a fair fight, but Peters pulled far out into the lead on the 6♦9♠A♠ flop, improving to a set of nines.
Margolin would need runner-runner to stay alive, but the 3♠ turn and 7♦ river offered him no help.
