Dumitru Pora shoved for 420,000 from under the gun and Ibrahim Cetiner called in the big blind.

Dumitru Pora: A♣4♠ All in
Ibrahim Cetiner: A♥7♥

Pora was behind and was asking for a chop, but instead he took the lead on the 3♣4♣5♠ flop as he paired his four. However, the 6♦ turn meant Cetiner made a straight, which left Pora drawing to a chop. No seven appeared on the river as the Q♦ completed the board, which left Pora out in 25th.
