Nektarios Papadedes had opened from early position and Paul Nakhle had called from the big blind. Nakhle then check-called bets from Papadedes on the flop and turn leading to a final runout of Q♠2♥2♠8♥9♥. Nakhle lead out with a bet that was called by Papadedes.
Papadedes had K♠K♣ for kings up but Nakhle had Q♥6♥ for a rivered flush to take the pot and leave Papadedes with just a few big blinds.
Papadedes would get the rest of his stack in preflop a few hands later against Stuart Taylor.
Nektarios Papadedes: 8♣6♣ 
Stuart Taylor: A♦5♥
The board ran out 10♥J♣2♥K♣K♠. Taylor's ace-high was good at showdown and he took the last of Papadedes' chips.
