Level 27 : Blinds 50,000/10,000, 100,000 ante

Ivan Ruban raised to 200,000 from early position and Daniyal Gheba defended out of the big blind.

Gheba led out for 150,000 on the 6♣6♠5♣ flop, and Ruban called.

Gheba checked the 2♠ turn and Ruban fired for 375,000. Gheba made the call.

A K♣ completed the board and Gheba jammed, covering Ruban. The jam was for Ruban's stack of 1,300,000, and it didn't take long for Ruban to land on a fold.
