Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Arkadiy Tsinis
Arkadiy Tsinis

Arkady Tsinis was all in preflop holding the {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} against the {a-Spades}{10-Spades} of Eric Salazar.

"Today we hold" said Salazar, willing his hand to remain in the lead. But the flop did not hold his hand up as it came down {4-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{5-Spades} to send Tsinis into the lead.

The turn was the {6-Clubs}. And it was the river that ultimately brought the end for Tsinis as the {a-Clubs} rained down to allow Salazar to get there after failing to hold.
