Ismail Akguc moved all in from early position for 7,900 and Vladimir Shabalin followed suit in the next seat, earning folds from the rest of the table, with Akguc at risk.

Ismail Akguc: A♦10♠
Vladimir Shabalin: A♠K♥

Akguc was in trouble with a dominated ace, and the A♥K♣4♥ flop left him almost drawing dead versus Shabalin's top two pair.
