Cimbolas Can't Fold the Aces

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

There was 9,800 in the pot. Matas Cimbolas was in the cutoff against Anton Astapau on the button.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and action checked through.

The {q-Hearts} was the turn and Cimbolas bet 5,000. Astapau called.

The river was the {2-Hearts} and Cimbolas bet 5,000 again. Astapau postured before moving all in for 18,700 effective covering Cimbolas. Cimbolas went into the tank for several minutes before making the call. Cimbolas was met with bad news as Astapau turned over {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts} for the nut flush to eliminate Cimbolas who had {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}.
