Rafael Golka opened from under the gun then called after Niall Farrell in the cutoff three-bet.

On a flop of 3A5, Farrell continued for 80,000, and he fired a second barrel of 200,000 on the 5 turn. Golka check-called both times.

The 9 completed the board and after Golka checked, Farrell moved all-in. Golka quickly called, being the player at risk for approximately 350,000.

Rafael Golka: AQ All in
Niall Farrell: AK

both players hit two pair, but Farrell had a better kicker and sent Golka to the rail.
