Tabiyev Spikes the River to Bust Kuziv
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Ivan Kuziv raised to 100,000 in the cutoff, leaving himself 35,000 behind, and Boris Tabiyev moved all in from the small blind. Kuziv stared at the tournament clock as he burned through a few time banks and eventually committed the rest of his chips.
Ivan Kuziv: 8♠8♦ 
Boris Tabiyev: A♠K♥
Kuziv's two eights remained in the lead as the board came J♥5♥2♣5♠, but Tabiyev hit the A♥ on the river to make two pair as he let out a big fist bump while Kuziv was forced to head for the exit.
