Krasimir Yankov opened to 7,000 from under the gun and Artur Martirosian three-bet to 24,000 on the button. Yankov called and the players saw the 3♦10♦4♥ flop.

Yankov checked, Martirosian bet 21,000 and Yankov picked up a stack to raise. Martirosian snap shoved for around 220,000 covering Yankov's ~165,000, remaining chips and it didn't take long before Yankov put himself at risk and turned over his hand.

Krasimir Yankov: J♦10♣5♦4♣All in
Artur Martirosian: K♠K♦Q♠Q♦

Yankov had flopped top two pair, and the flush draw, and was ahead of Martirosian. Yankov held on the 2♠ turn but as the board paired on the 3♥ river, Martirosian's pocket kings gave him the pot, busting Yankov shortly after returning from the dinner break.
