With about 66,000 in the pot and the board showing A♣6♠Q♥3♣K♠, Ihor Popyk, first to act in the big blind, moved all in for roughly 60,000. Alf Martinsson, under the gun, glanced at his cards before quickly making the call.
Popyk already knew he was out before even seeing the cards, standing up from his chair. He tabled Q♦9♥ for a pair of queens, but Martinsson held A♠Q♠ for two pair, aces and queens, scooping the pot.
