Kalkan Eliminates Afsharorumieh
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Action was caught with around 47,500 in the middle with the board reading 
.
Afshin Afsharorumieh, in the small blind, had shoved his final 18,700 chips and Ismail Kalkan went deep into the tank for over two minutes, asking Afsharorumieh questions nearly the entire time.
"Did you have ace-king and get lucky? I have a queen. Did you get there?"
Eventually, Kalkan agonizingly made the call. Afsharorumieh produced 
for third pair and a missed flush draw.
"Oh my god, he nearly bluffed me!" Kalkan exclaimed as he turned over 
for the win, eliminating Afsharorumieh, who was one of the flight's bigger stacks most of the day.
