Konstantin Uspenskiy was left behind with very little chips and in the hand after he lost most of it Billirakis decided to limp. Jelassi also decided to put in 5,000 bringing the action to Uspenskiy who pushed all-in for his last 28,000 chips. Billirakis, who had limped under the gun, re-potted to 99,000 getting Jelassi to fold.

The flop brought out and the Russian was looking for running flush or a queen. The turn was the giving Uspenskiy hope but he was convinced there were no outs left. When the river, the , got dealt he left his chair. His opponents reminded him he made a flush and Uspenskiy reacted with amazement, "Flush?". The Russian almost triples up and is back up to 12 big blinds.
