Nikolai Fal: XxXx / 6♣8♣8♦4♦ / Xx
Dekel Balas: XxXx / 7♣2♠9♣A♦ / Xx
Fal limped next to the bring-in and Balas completed on his left, and Fal was the only caller.
Fal check-called on fourth, and then he led on fifth after making open eights.
On sixth, Fal check-called again and seventh street checked through.
"Only aces," announced Balas as Fal showed J♥J♣6♥ in the hole, and his jacks-up were enough for the win.
