Just before the blinds went up and on a {j-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop, Pavel Plesuv check-called a 65,000 bet in the hijack against Boris Kolev in the cutoff.

The {k-Clubs} came on the turn and Plesuv check-jammed after Kolev bet 175,000. Kolev quickly put in a chip to signify the call and hands were revealed.

Pavel Plesuv: {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Boris Kolev: {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Both players smashed the flop, as Kolev made the nut straight and Plesuv flopped the top set, but Plesuv needed to pair the board to stay alive.

The {4-Clubs} completed the board to send Plesuv to the rail and send the chips to Kolev, as the remaining 18 players now converge on the final two tables.
