Straight on the Board
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Boris Angelov in middle position raised to 160,000 and he was called by David Collins in the small blind. However Alexander Tkatschew in the big blind decided to three-bet all in for 1,985,000. Angelov four-bet all in and Collins folded K♣J♦.
Alexander Tkatschew: K♥Q♥ 
Boris Angelov: A♣K♠
Tkatschew needed a queen or hearts to survive, but a straight on the 6♠4♠7♥5♣3♥ board worked as well and both players split the pot.
