Antoine Vranken defended his big blind and check-called a bet worth 50,000 by Marek Uharcek on the button with the flop showing K♠8♠8♣. On the 5♥ turn, Vranken checked again and Uharcek got the last 125,000 into the middle. Vranken used one time bank and called in this duel of short stacks.
Marek Uharcek: K♣J♣8♦5♦
Antoine Vranken: A♣A♦6♠5♣
Vranken needed one of the two remaining aces in the deck but the river only brought the 10♠ to leave the Dutchman short-stacked.
