There were about 250,000 chips in the pot on a full board that showed Q♠K♦K♥3♥9♠. Aren Bezhanyan was first to act from under the gun and checked. The player seated next to Bezhanyan fired out a bet of 225,000, causing Bezhanyan to go into the tank.
After Bezhanyan burned through a few of his time bank cards, he flicked in the call. The early position player turned over K♠10♠ for trip kings, prompting Bezhanyan to muck his cards.

Nenad Dukic made it 20,000 to go from early position before Mekan Yusupov three-bet to around 75,000 from the button. When it got back to Dukic, he thought for a while before four-bet jamming for 382,000. Yusupov got a count from the dealer and then made the call.
Nenad Dukic: K♥K♠ 
Mekan Yusupov: A♦K♣
Dukic had the goods with pocket kings and looked poised to double-up if he could fade an ace. The flop came down 10♠6♣2♣ keeping Dukic ahead. The J♣ on the turn offered some extra outs to Yusupov, and he managed to find one of them on the 4♣ river, improving to a flush to win the pot and bust Dukic.
