After the action was folded around to him in the small blind, Jeff Sarwer limped in and Roland Israelashvili checked the action. The dealer spread a flop of 
across the table and Sarwer led out for a bet of 16,000. Israelashvili called and the turn card came 
.
After Sarwer fired a bet of 33,000 into the middle, Israelashvili calmly tossed a few chips worth 85,000 into the pot and stared straight at the board. Sarwer went deep into the tank and contemplated his next move for over three minutes, repeatedly glancing over at Israelashvili.
Eventually, the former chess master pushed his entire stack forward for a bet of nearly 350,000, which was enough to force Israelashvili all-in. The power move worked to perfection and Israelashvili tossed his cards into the muck. This pot boosted Sarwer's stack to 535,000 while Israelashvili dropped to 180,000 with the loss.
