Daniel Zaremba raised to 12,000 under the gun and received calls from Andrei Shpak on the button and Giorgos Tsoupras in the big blind.
The action checked to Shpak on the 9♦7♠3♣ flop, and he bet 30,000. Tsoupras quickly mucked his cards before Zaremba raised to 110,000. Shpak spent one time bank as he decided to make the call.
Zaremba then put Sphak all-in on the 4♥ turn and was quickly called by his opponent, who put in his last 150,000 or so.
Andrei Shpak: 10♥7♥6♣5♣
Daniel Zaremba: J♣9♥9♣8♠
Zaremba's top set made four of a kind on the 9♠ river, sending Shpak to the rail in style.
