From the button, Paulius Kostickis opened to 10,000. Roman Kulijev decided to defend his big blind.

On the Q♥2♣Q♣ flop, Kulijev check-called a 9,000 bet from Kostickis. Both players checked the J♥ turn and when 4♥ fell on the river, it was now Kulijev who showed initial aggression, betting out 24,000 into the 40,000 pot. After a minutes consideration, Kostickis threw in the chips to make the call.

Roman Kulijev: K♥8♣
Paulius Kostickis: 5♠4♠

Kostickis pair of fives were enough to take home a decently sized pot.

Paulius Kostickis: 320,000
Roman Kulijev: 160,000
