Ara Melkisetian opened 300,000 under the gun before Ran Shahar shoved 710,000 next to act. The action folded around to Damir Gabdullin in the big blind who went into the tank. After a short period, he raised to 1,410,000, and Melkisetian snap-mucked his cards into the muck.
Ran Shahar: A?K?
Damir Gabdullin: K?3?
Shahar had Gabdullin dominated, but he had to fade some extra outs as the 9?8?2? flop hit the felt, giving Gabdullin a flush draw. The 5? fell on the turn, changing nothing but the 3? river gave Gabdullin the best hand wtih a pair of threes.
Shahar was shook up as he stood up from the table saying, "You decided to play bad huh."
Melkisetian piped in, "I now think you're the best poker player."
