Kazuhiko Yotsushika raised to 35,000 from the button, Boyuan Qu three-bet to 89,000 from the big blind, and Yotsushika called.

The river was the {Q-Diamonds} and Qu checked. Yotsushika bet 200,000 and after a bit of thought, Qu called and tabled {10-Clubs}{5-Spades}, which was good enough to win the pot against Yotsushika's {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs}.
