Recep Aydemir shoved for his last 5,800,000 on the button and it was folded to Frederick Anastasiades in the big blind, who asked for a count and called after a bit of deliberation.

Aydemir was flipping and maintained his lead on the 8?3?8? flop, but the 9? turn paired Anastasiades' nine to leave Aydemir drawing to two outs.
