Ozan Kokkaliaris was all in for his last 9,000 from the small blind before Timur Margolin reraised to 30,000 in early position. Seref Dursun Anar called to create a side pot.

The flop came {3-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and Margolin continued for 27,000. Dursun Anar called to see the {9-Spades} on the turn, when Margolin moved all in for 74,500.

Dursun Anar tanked for about a minute before calling. Margolin gave a sigh and signed {k-Spades}{9-Spades} for straight and flush draws. Dursun Anar had {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for a pair of tens, while Kokkiliaris, who spent the entire hand pacing around the table, opened up {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}.

The river came the {j-Hearts} and Dursun Anar finished with two pair to send both players to the rail.

"Always a flush draw," a tablemate told Dursun Anar after the hand, complimenting him on the good call.
