Level 8 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Maxim Lykov had a raise of 14,000 in front of him from the cutoff before Roger Abed moved all in for 38,000 on the button. Tahsin Cankurtaranli reshoved for 77,500 under the gun and Lykov tanked for several minutes before calling with the covering stack.

Roger Abed: J?J?
Tahsin Cankurtaranli: K?K?
Maxim Lykov: Q?Q?

The board ran out 10?A?10?9?10? and Cankurtaranli's kings improved to a full house, sending Abed to the rail and earning him a double up off Lykov.
