After winning a race and eliminating Brian Green with {k-}{q-} against Green's {8-}{8-}, Greg Merson was faced with a completion from Alex Bilokur in the small blind. Merson didn't check, choosing to raised to 9,000. The Russian called.

The flop fell {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, Bilokur check-called a bet of 11,000 from the 2012 WSOP Main Event champ, and the turn was the {7-Diamonds}. Bilokur check-called another 23,000, the river was the {a-Diamonds}, and both players checked.

Bilokur revealed the {k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for a flush, and Merson mucked.
