Mata Runs Into the Nuts

Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Heads-up on a board of 5?A?10?K?, Aleksandr Kirichenko bet 20,500 from the big blind and Luis Mata called in middle position.
The river was the 6? and Kirichenko moved all in. Mata snap-called for his last 40,000 and Kirichenko turned over Q?J? for the nut straight. Mata tossed 10?10? into the muck as he made an early exit on Day 2.
