Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: 9♠9♥
Carmel Haloon: J♥J♣
Skhulukhiya took the lead flopping a set on the 10♦9♦Q♣ flop but in a dramatic turn of events Haloon made a straight on the 8♦ turn. Skhulukhiya could not catch up on the 2♦ river and was sent to the rail two spots shy of making the money while Haloon collected the last of his chips.
