With the board showing Club 6Heart 5Spade 4Club 8 on the turn and about 82,000 already in the pot, Alice Sanchez (pictured) moves all in from the small blind for 65,000. David Malka thinks for a while before he calls from the big blind, and Anuj Agarwal quickly folds his hand in the hijack.

Sanchez turns over Spade 7Spade 5 for an eight-high straight, and she needs her hand to hold to stay alive against Malka’s Club 7Club 2 — an eight-high straight with a club flush.

Sanchez needs a non-club on the river to stay alive with a chop.

The river card is the Club J, and Malka completes his flush to eliminate Sanchez five spots away from the money.

David Malka  –  675,000  (135 bb)
