The pot had about 12,000 in it when the complete board was on the table. The board read 
and Kalidou Sow was the one out of position who moved all in. His all in was for 11,200 and it sent Gael Dirig in the tank.
Dirig thought about it for a couple of minutes before saying something in French to Sow. Sow didn't respond to Dirig and there was some more tanking.
Dirig eventually let go of his hand and Sow picked up a nice pot without showdown.
