Konstantin Puchkov brought it in with the 
showing, and he called a completion from the 
of Barbieri.
Puchkov: (X) (X) / 
/ (X)
Barbieri: (X) (X) / 
/ (X)
Puchkov had the lead the whole way, and he check-called bets on fourth, fifth, and sixth streets. On seventh, Puchkov finally led out with his own bet, and Barbieri called.
Puchkov exposed his down cards: 
"Queens up?" Barbieri asked. "It's good." With that, he sent his cards into the muck. That loss sets him all the way back under 600,000.
