Anatoly Filatov opened to 1,300 on the button and the player in the small blind, who for a moment seemed to consider moving all in, called.
The small blind checked on the flop and called after Filatov continued for 1,200.
Action checked through the turn to the river where the small blind slid 3,400 into the middle. Filatov, who has struggled for much of the day, laid his hand down after just a little hesitation to send himself slipping further down the chip counts.

Michael Holtz called PokerNews over to a table as a huge pot was brewing between Elio Fox and Andy Philachack. The board read and Fox had shoved for his last 109,000.
Philachack went into the tank for several minutes. "Sick turn. Sick river," Philachack said as he pondered the decision. Philachack eventually flashed two queens for a flopped set as he mucked.
According to Holtz, Philachack had raised pre-flop to 1,300 and called when Fox three-bet. On the flop, Fox continued for 4,000, Philachack raised to 8,000, and Fox called.
Philachack bet 10,000 on the turn before Fox raised to 25,000. Philachack called, then checked on the river before Fox jammed.

Action was picked up with 8,700 in the pot and a board of on the felt.
Austin Lewis led out for 10,000 from early position. Kenny Tran, one seat to his left, put in a raise to 20,000, and Lewis called.
The river paired the board for a second time. Lewis fired for 30,000. After a bit of deliberation and chip counting, Tran moved all in for 88,800. This sent Lewis into the tank, where he thought mostly out loud.
"Let me figure out what I can lose to here," he began. "Four nines?" he posited. "Spooky." Tran remained mostly silent, letting Lewis stew in his own thoughts. "Damn. You got pocket nines?" he reiterated. "This might be a bad fold if I fold this. I don't get it. I lose to like..." his voice trailed off as he threw his hands up in disbelief and confusion. "I can't think of what the fuck I lose to. Pocket nines. I lose to nine seven. I don't know. That's spooky."
Eventually, Lewis made the laydown, giving the pot to Tran. "Maybe you had a seven. I had a full house, a seven," Lewis said after the hand.
"One seven?" Tran inquired.
"One seven." Lewis responded, still in disbelief at what happened.
